Yeah the puck – bottom match is the really key thing… course there are some pretty crappy pucks out there, but a good puck on a bad bottom can be a bad puck as well. Nothing worse than a soft puck on a slow bottom that just makes everything slower, or a hard puck on a fast bottom that never settles down and has no feel for moving it.

The Canadian oreo puck is great for medium speed bottoms and really the only decent one for use on sport court.

I like the CanAm pucks with the plastic disk for slow bottoms like concrete or gunite (a kinda plastic concrete) He makes them different densities so they can range from pretty soft to really hard depending on the bottom. The hard ones are pretty durable for concrete like surfaces, but they do bobble quite a bit, the ones with the disk can tend to bobble across grout lines.
