How Do you Keep Homepads from Sliding?

chunk552 · 05-5-2007, 03:40 PM

hi there, recently bought Supernova for the PS2 and got one of those universial Gamestop pads to go with it. however, any time i play a song with more than a little bit of stream or jumps, the pad slides half-way across the room, sideways, or something which usually results in the game thinking i suck way worse than i do. help, please?

Duct tape. Lots and lots of duct tape.

Sometimes, When that happens to me. I just sit in the middle, and use my hands

fun, You should try.

What I used to do before I got a metal pad was duct tape it to a piece of plywood and just put weights on the sides (as many as you can find).

And a lawnchair for a bar (perfect height/ shape).

eh the sagmestop pads suck...I got two when I started out, and still regret it

Don't play on carpet if you can. The pads I have are cheap as hell (they don't even have the foam padding), but they don't slip on wood floors.

just what the other guys said. duct tape (i usually do all 4 corners) and a "DDR BAR" like chair.

wickedawesomeful · 05-8-2007, 09:16 PM

I screwed mine down to a piece of plywood.

PinoySkillz · 05-8-2007, 09:56 PM

save your money and buy a good metal pad like i did

solopro · 05-12-2007, 03:19 PM

Well, at my school, they used masking tape to hold them down on each of the four corners.

You can use duct tape, too. I don't know if that will work. We were on a gym floor.

Buy a metal pad...
"COBALT FLUX!!!!"

Then, if you have concrete floor, it will not slide...
If you have carpet, buy a rubber pad to lay underneath of it...
