Some of you might remember might last blog, where I tested the P-RF, of which I sadly had to say that it wasn't good for playing SC with it.
Though, this time I can give you a way different answer: This mousepad is awesome! It fits for whatever I do, playing SC, playing DotA, and I've also tested it with CS (I sadly got alot of lag on CS when I am on my lap, and my desktop is broken.. so the testperiod wasn't even quiet half an hour), and I gotta say that it works perfect for all of them. No jumping, no no reacting, just working as a mousepad should do.
Last time some people also said that mousepads aren't needed, they got their table ... yea, but let me tell you one thing guys: After using a good esports mousepad, you will notice how crappy your table is, and that you don't want to use that one anymore!
Okay, now, to the mousepad, which can also be found on the official website of zowie, here.
So, zowie worked together with an imfamous CS1.6 player: SpawN (yea, I also don't know him, but seems he was a pretty big guy in the CS scene, then retired, but did a comeback and started to work with zowie, so they can handle out some things for better playing, and this is his first mousepad (they also got this guy heaton (or something like this) and just new: Neo (only guy from CS I've ever heard from, he is like a god or so there?)). The mousepad is hence, designed and tested by someone who knows what is important in e-Sports, which obviously speaks for it, right?
Whatsoever, here go some details, taken from the website:
Feature :
l SpawN's first mouse pad
l Unique and Original SpawN's textured ' 100% cloth but fast as plastic

Okay, so, companies ofc always boost their stuff, and tell you what it can do for things, so people buy it. Sadly, it too often happens that those things aren't all 100% true (as usualy the battery of an mp3-player doesn't go as long as they say, nor did I ever manage to get 1k song on my 4GB, but barely hit the 700, and it's FULL).
So I had to test it for myself, this is all made of clothing, so it would actually not be waterproof, or? Sounds a bit unrealistic, but I just tested it, and uh.. it doesn't take up any tiny bit of the water o,oa'
Don't believe it? The gosu I am, I did a small video^_^; (I just got a freakin USB-Cable for my cellphone yesterday, so I had to test it:D ):
Alright, this time I can say nothing negative about this mousepad, and that's good, right? it was a bit different to use it from my old Q-PAD CT GosuGamers Edition mousepad, but it is just not as height, as it, and after using it for some hours, I am now permanently using it, since more than a week already, and it's doing a perfect job, just as the Qpad.
The sizes are something to talk about, maybe. The "small" one is already almost as wide as my 17" widescreen laptop, and a bit higher :O so, already pretty big, and that's all fine, it's the P-TF, btw. The G-TF, on the other hand is REALLY huge (the one in the video), and well, it's almost as wide as my extern keyboard, and way wider than the laptop, and also higher;)
just huge, but also great if the have the space for it on your desktop;D
So, last time I was asked where to buy it, and how much it costs, and well.. I didn't really had the answer right on my hand, so I got that information up, and here they are:
Where to buy it? Check for your location here:

How much does it cost, though?
here the P-TF is available for just $25.99 (international orders) (my Qpad from GosuGamers was 27euro):

and the G-TF costs $29.90:

If there are any other questions, feel free to ask.
I would recommend this any time, it seems good for all the things you do, fast movement, accurate movement, precise movement, it does its job for everything.
