Aqua Control II have break in period?

I havent had the pad but from what i read its anywhere from 2 to 3 weeks with moderate usage if you have an arm sleeve it might be a little slower depending on sleeve and your skates can also matter. The pad itself is pretty rough texture wise so dont expect that to go away anytime but try turning the pad 90 degrees every day that usually works for me

i had it like for a few days of 6 hrs +- sessions
