My hands get sweaty occasionally when I play for anything that is particularlly important.
I figured out a trick.....quite by accident, and I am not saying I reccommend this for everyone, but for me it works. Before my last scholarship audition I was in the bathroom fixing my hair. I didn't wash my hands afterwards and for the first time my mallets weren't slippery from sweat. Since then I have found that by spraying my hands lightly with hairspray before I play I don't have any problems.
I know this isn't the most professional thing in the world, and in heat it can get sticky, but occassionally I resort to hair products!
Thought you all might get a kick out of that.
