Dude I'm fat. It's different for me. My cobalt flux slides around and it's way heavier than an Ignition.

I think there's more reasons than you just being fat. The bottoms of the ignitions have a grippy bottom the helps to prevent it from moving too far, though it's also pretty dependant on the type of floor you're playing on. This doesn't mean the pad doesn't migrate, but it's not as horrible a thing as many people are making it out to be, unless you play double which is when you break out the duct tape.

How about this- this weekend I'll play ITG expert stepfiles on both RO Ignitions and Cobalt Flux pads and document how much both of them migrate while playing. I don't have any fat people handy that are at your level of skill and are able to play those songs, so I'll just have to stick to skinny people (as in me) doing the experiment.
