I've read that the idea behind the snakeskin pattern on the EB Kobra pistols is that the texture is one-way. Your hand slides smoothly up the texture as you're getting your grip, but sticks once you have your grip. It might be bunk. I've never tried it and can't comment directly but it sounds like a great idea.
Anyway, I prefer a textured frontstrap and haven't noticed it hindering my draw. Of the patterns I've tried I like 30 LPI the best. I'd like to try that EB treatment to see how it feels, though.
