surface process comparison: Jade Bird and Aoyi each have their own characteristics
In terms of anti-slip design of the pad surface, except Keep, which has wavy patterns on both sides, the other two have unique patented anti-skid textures on the front, and the pad surface workmanship is relatively unique .

Anti-slip comparison: Ultraviolet is better
As for hygroscopicity, the reviewer dipped an appropriate amount of water on the surface of the three yoga mats, and then wiped them. Observe the moisture residue and dryness on the pad surface. Among them, Auyi performs best. The surface of the mat is easy to wipe off moisture and absorbs water quickly. After wiping, the mat surface is almost dry. It can be seen that it is not easy to slip when sweat drips. It is very friendly to hot yoga or aerobics that sweat a lot.
Jade Bird: Difficult to wipe, leaving a lot of moisture
Mystique: Easy to wipe, moisture dries quickly
keep: Easy to wipe, but leaves a lot of moisture Leave a slight drop of water
The evaluator then used the pork test method to evaluate the anti-slip properties of the yoga mat on both dry and wet surfaces. We laid the mat flat on the table and placed pork with skin that is similar to human tissue. At the same end of the mat surface, lift the table to observe the sliding of the pork, simulating the anti-slip performance of human skin on the mat surface.
has been tested: on both dry and wet mats, the pork on the Blue Bird and Keep will slide smoothly to the bottom when it is lifted to a certain height, while on the Oyi, the pork is obviously blocked when sliding down, and the tilt angle is larger, and the anti-slip performance is better. Better than that.

The evaluator laid the yoga mat flat on the household tile floor, used a high-precision dial tension meter to pull the mat horizontally without anyone standing on the mat, and calculated the corresponding tensile force to estimate the grip of the three yoga mats.
After testing: when pulling the three yoga mats, the required pulling force is all above 18N. It requires a certain amount of strength to pull. The grip is quite stable and safe to use. Among them, the largest pulling force is required when pulling the Blue Bird, and its grip performance is the best.
Resilience comparison: Keep is unique
The reviewer pinched the mat with his fingers and immediately released it to feel its rebound strength: After testing, the three yoga mats can basically return to their original state immediately after being dented. Preliminary tests show that The resilience of the three is about the same.
The evaluator then further conducted an egg dropping experiment. After testing, when the eggs fell freely and fell to the mat surface at a height of 1m, they could rebound without breaking, and their resilience could meet the needs of daily exercise. Among them, Keep The yoga mat has the highest rebound height against eggs and the strongest resilience, while the Blue Bird's performance is mediocre.
