This may or may not be worth anything to you....BUT I have Prism Matrix from Wet Edge which seems to be pretty much the same/similar thing. I wasn't a huge fan of the pebble finishes, but I did like the mini pebbles. I find this to be smoother than the mini pebbles. Part of it is the glass beads, and part of it is mixing larger and smaller pebbles, so there's a more even surface. I find that it feels sort of like a beaded wallet or a beaded purse. If you miss a step going in and drag your heel down across it hard it will definitely scrape you, but I don't have any issues with raw toes or anything from normal use and I've been using it a lot. Hope that helps some.
