Based in Salt Lake City, Utah, XTrac has been around since March of 2002. They manufacture quality mousing surfaces and accessories for use in many applications including gaming, military, medical and other industries. Out of their impressive selection of mousing surfaces (some are simply to large to be called just a "pad"), we will be taking a look at the Ripper XXL which is a LARGE cloth mousing surface which measures a whopping 36" x 18"! If you're like me you've stopped using a mouse pad because you're tired of falling off the damned thing. Nothing is more frustrating that losing control during an intense frag session. With the Ripper XXL small size is no longer an issue.

 

Specs & Info

Here is the scoop on the Xtrac Ripper XXL as given by Xtrac at their website:

The Ripper XXL™ may very well be the biggest mouse mat in the world. Weighing in at 36" wide x 18" high (that's 914mm x 457mm) this is not your ordinary mouse pad. Indeed, this is so much more than a mouse pad, it's a Desktop Experience©.

XTracPads Ripper XXL™ features:

  • Whisper quiet cloth surface
  • Frey resistant edges
  • Soft and comfortable
  • Sure Grip rubber backing
  • Super Wide Mad Tape
  • Extra heavy duty

Imagine putting shock absorbers underneath your keyboard/mouse and you will have an idea of the level of comfort you can get from the Ripper XXL™.

*Included is our extra-wide Mad Tape™ designed to fit a wide variety of mouse feet including the Logitech "G" series. Easy to install, simply wipe your existing mouse feet with the included alcohol wipe, wait about 3 minutes for your mouse feet to dry then size, cut and place the Mad Tape™ directly over your existing mouse feet.

Features:

  • Silky smooth solid black surface
  • Quiet operation
  • Very flexible
  • HUGE mousing surface
  • (2) 5" strips of XTracPads Mad Tape™

Specifications:

36"w x 18"h x 1/8" (914mm w X 457mm h)
Sure Grip rubber backing
Cloth mousing surface

Package

Because of it's large size the term mouse pad no longer applies. XTrac refers to the Ripper XXL as a mouse mat and the term definitely applies. The ripper XXL measures 18 inches by 36 inches. That's a massive 4 1/2 square feet of mousing surface. If you keep falling off of this surface you need to back off on the caffeine. If you have a small desk then this mat may not be for you. If that's the case, XTrac still has you covered with a variety of smaller oversized pads. Also included with the mat are two strips of extra wide Mad Tape, a pair of alcohol wipes, instructions and an XTrac sticker.
