Obsidian Air DIY Mouse Skates — Less Noise, More Control

40 hardened PTFE dot skates, 0.9mm thick × 6.5mm diameter, with a hard, finely frosted surface — built for maximum control and emergency stop on cloth and glass mouse pads, with less noise than the standard Obsidian.

40 Dots / Pack Hardened PTFE Less Noise

DIY PTFE Dot Skates Tuned for Quieter Control

The Obsidian Air DIY Mouse Skates are universal 0.9mm × 6.5mm PTFE dots in the Obsidian family — built for control and stopping power, refined for less noise. The hard, finely frosted surface increases friction at the contact point; the hardened PTFE adds braking power for emergency stops and tap-shot precision — without the louder slide of standard skates.

Apply as many or as few as you want. Fewer dots = faster glide. More dots = more control and slower stop. Tune your skates the way you tune your sensitivity.

Key Features of the Obsidian Air Mouse Skates

01

Less Noise — Air Refinement

Tuned to slide quieter than the standard Obsidian — same control character, lower acoustic signature. Better for shared spaces, late-night sessions, and recording.

02

Hardened PTFE Material

Harder than standard PTFE — the dots resist deformation and deliver more braking power for emergency stops and controlled tap-shot aim.

03

Finely Frosted Surface

Hard, finely frosted contact surface — increases friction against cloth and glass pads for cleaner stops and no overshoot.

04

DIY Tunability

Fewer dots = faster, slipperier glide. More dots = slower, more controlled stop. Lay them out the way your aim style needs.

Speed in the Obsidian Lineup

Where Obsidian Air sits on the glide-to-control scale (measured on AC PRO MID):

1

Obsidian

Fastest in the family — most glide, less braking.

2

Obsidian Air

This product. A touch slower than Obsidian, with less noise.

3

Obsidian Pro

More control, more brake, less glide than Air.

4

Obsidian Pro Air

Slowest in the line — maximum control, lowest noise.

Glide/braking ranking: Obsidian > Obsidian Air > Obsidian Pro > Obsidian Pro Air. Measured on AC PRO MID mouse pad.

Layout References

Tip: fewer dots = faster glide, more dots = more controlled stop. Start with the original foot positions, then add or remove dots until the balance feels right.

FAQ

How is Obsidian Air different from regular Obsidian?
Both use hardened PTFE with a finely frosted surface for control and stopping power. Obsidian Air is tuned to slide a little slower with less noise — same control character, quieter acoustic signature. Pick Air if you share a space, record, or just prefer a softer slide; pick standard Obsidian if you want a touch more glide.
Where does Obsidian Air sit in the lineup?
On the glide-to-control scale, ranked fastest to slowest: Obsidian → Obsidian Air → Obsidian Pro → Obsidian Pro Air. Air sits between standard Obsidian and the Pro variants. Measured on AC PRO MID mouse pad.
How many dots should I use per mouse?
Start with the same number and positions as your mouse's original feet. From there: add more dots to slow the glide and increase control, or remove dots to speed up. Most builders find their preferred layout within a few attempts.
Will these work on my mouse pad?
Yes for cloth and glass mouse pads. Not recommended for coated or plastic mouse pads — the hardened, frosted surface is tuned for the texture of cloth and glass.
Are these the best skates for quiet control gameplay?
For players who prioritise stopping power and tap-shot control but want to keep the slide quieter, the Obsidian Air is one of the better DIY options — same hardened PTFE braking character as the standard Obsidian, refined for lower noise.
