I'll address the pad differences first. While it's true that most soft pads are shit, red octane makes higher end soft pads, these ones use grid detectors similar to the ones found in hard pads. Detection on them was never a problem. Sliding however, was a problem. When playing dual pad, they would slide away from each other to the point that you wouldn't be able to finish a song. I fixed that by grabbing some zippers from a military surplus store and fixing the pads too each other. The larger surface area increased grip on the floor and stopped them from moving around mostly. We never had any issues with sliding after that.

As for stamina improvement, why is it so surprising that 2-4 hours of working out every day for 3 months can increase your movement that drastically? First time marathon runners will often do a 16 week training regimen before their first race. It's not uncommon at all for couch potatoes to go through this and find themselves able to run 26.2 miles at the end of it. I'd argue that a child whose body can heal faster could easily achieve similar results in 13 weeks with an increased regimen. Also though, you mentioned in a later post that you used the bar a lot to stabilize yourself - this reduces the total energy expended during a song. Using soft pads, we didn't have this bar, so we were forced to control our body weight (resulting in a harder workout). Also note that as a competitive player, your focus is on final score, which means you will approach the game trying to maximize the efficiency of your movements so as to hit every step. As kids, my brother and I tried to maximize the difficulty of songs we could simply pass. We would challenge each other to do the song at 2x speed, with increased jumps, even going so far as to modify the step files to add new moves into the song. Hopefully that will clarify some things for you, but feel free to argue any of these points. I'll always make time to validate my claims.

http://www.amazon.com/Redoctane-Ignition-Dance-Platform-Playstation-2/dp/B00025LDT0/ref=sr_1_3?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1341806832&sr=1-3&keywords=red+octane+dance+pad is what I used to use and it lasted a few years of incredibly heavy usage. Not only was I 250 when I started using it, the two I had were used by friends 4+ hours a day and for DDR club once a week with tons of people not being careful at all.

the one he linked seems to be about the same thing and certainly cheaper (2 for the price of one of mine basically) so I think that would be a good starting point for you.

While their metal pads are crap, I've never seen anyone specifically have problems with the foam pads. Mine is working great going on 6 years, with heavy use for 2 of those years. It's lasted longer than 2 previous Red Octane Ignition.
