Try it this way:
Keep the fiberboard/plywood the same.
Keep the foam the same.
Instead of taping the dance pad to the board, cover the top of it with kitchen floor linolium. Bend the linolium around the sides of the pad and nail it into the edges of the board making a pocket between the board and linolium for the pad to rest in. That way, the surface of the pad is protected from wear. You can expect much longer life. You can see my pad in the bottom left of this picture. I did the same thing without the foam.
