    Razer Goliathus Control Edition. Have a speed edition and a brushed aluminium plate also, but both tend to be a bit skittery with the Teflon mousefeet

    I used to use a Hardocp Ratzpad, however it started bending in the middle and I got tired of bending it back...

    A friend recommended me a Func Surface 1030 and that is what I've been using for the last years, works great!

    As for mice I've long loved the Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer 3.0 but their build quality has become crap in the last 5 years or so. (The micro switches get worn out causing the mouse to either miss clicks or double click when you single click)
    I bought a Razer / Microsoft Habu gaming mouse however that did not last so longer either, and was overall a quite buggy mouse. (First time I've had to update the firmware in my mouse!)

    Now I have owned a A4Tech X7 Oscar Gaming Mouse X-748K for 1.5 years and I love it, it's really cheap but has great build quality, precision & feel!

    I use a memory foam mouse pad, it's soft on my wrist and the mouse operates, more smoothly and effeciently, but I'd rather use any 'ol mouse pad over no mouse pad.

    I built my own mousepad from a solid plate of aluminum alloy. Cut it by myself (using LN2 for make the perfect cut), make the edges rounded then polished the side to near-mirror (with machine), then chamfered it..

    I use a piece of brown baking paper taped to my desk and teflon skates on the mouse itself. Looks like **** but the mouse glides so smooth I have yet to find a mousepad skate combo that can match it.

    Steelseries thin mouse pad, I think I spend $5. I've used the 3m ones before, they're quite good.

    Logitech MX518

    had it 2 years, still works as new, long sessions are a breeze with this thing, I believe there is a newer model of the MX518, ive considered upgrading, but my current works fine and I can't afford a new mouse really unless it was an emergency (IE it broke), and the new one might suck, never know, change can be bad!

    I haven't used a mouse pad in several years. My current mouse is "Logitech Wireless Laser Gaming Mouse G700" which can work on almost any surface.
