ESP makes those picks with some sort of abrasive substance that feels like sanding paper on the "handle" part of the pick. I never has the need to use em. My nephew has one of those ESP picks, which he bought somewhere in SM Lipa City.
thanks for this info bro, i should try one.

My hand-sweating are siguro above average pero di naman nakakadistract sa playing. Pero i prefer Dunlop Match Picks because it has a grippy logo. There are other Dunlop Picks which are better for traction pero I prefer Match Picks because they come in a great package and they're easy to store.

Red bear picks. The one Guthrie Govan uses.

Those holes would make the grip better.

try wrapping your thumb and index finger with double-sided tape. Ewan ko na lang kung dumulas pa yang pick sa daliri mo.  :)

Anyone ever try Gorilla Snot (kulangit ng gorilya)?

Or maybe some plain ol' violin bow rosin.

V-Picks. IIRC, the heat from your body somehow makes the pick stick to your thumb/fingers so you hardly ever drop it, and it looks cool. :)

I somehow didnt look for a particular pick to prevent me from dropping them. Just made a conscious effort to hold em properly. Havnt dropped one in 5 yrs playin.
So proper pick holding is a good practice

V-Picks...I have used and experimented with different picks but it's V-Pick that I found the best. I like the V-Pick Snake. Very comfortable.
