Nuke-Z Z8

Nuke-Z Z8 ( 400 x 310mm – Flexible )
Provided by: Digital Century

Digital Century provided us with a sample from the fairly new Nuke-Z company, the Z8 is a mouse pad build for gamers.

The Z8 comes in a plastic tube with nylon wristband so you can wear easily carry the mouse pad with you to LAN parties.

The pad itself is huge at 40cm x 31cm and quite thick too (~4mm); visually the pad is made up of two layers, but further research reveals that the top layer is a mixture of cloth and plastic. The bottom layer is quite soft and provides anti-slip.

Still using my everglide here.
No need to replace it.

It is missing the Icemat, which is the best mousepad because it never wears out, transfers excess heat away from the hand, slides well and looks and feels great. And glass is SEXY.

I completely agree with you. I used Everglide but they wear out quickly.

Icemat is the best. I would recommend only to use mousemats that are made of steel or glass. They're durable and easy to clean.
