Post by: Gnarlyscoots on September 16, 2012, 02:36 PM: I was told it's the type of material that they are made of. Apparently, it stretch's to grip as it's applied to the moving surface and the squealing is the result :)

Post by: griff on September 16, 2012, 05:12 PM: I don't mind the squealing pads
Comes in well handy on London rides when you want tourists to shift the fook out of the way :daumenhoch:
