Re: Good material for el toro?

Wedge top tread also seems like a good option as it is pretty grippy on the ball. Also, if only need mcmastercarr parts:
A) large surgical tubing could work well either wrapped or just over the post
B) the mesh in kevans post
C) some of this neoprene- http://www.mcmaster.com/#9013K48 -it's nice and cheap

Good luck!!
