If they are like the zebra mats tatami, they will get less slippery as used. It will take a little time though, and the change from wrestling mats is a pretty big one, since they tend to give a lot of traction. The new Zebra mats at the first Aiki Expo were also very slippery, but they got a lot better as they were used throughout the expo.
