Here we present an easy to implement methodology in controlling the mobility of water droplets by means of backpressure application. Tuning the backpressure the inherently sticky hydrophobic porous surface may be readily rendered non-sticky, and hence slippery dynamically and reversibly and with low response time. We follow the shape of water droplets upon backpressure. ER -
