Okay I don't usually tell people this because it's a pretty well kept secret at the top levels of professional gaming, but I can't stay silent any longer. If you want super smooth aim like the pros, all you need to do is smear 2 table spoons of high grade extra virgin olive oil on your mousepad. That shit will glide like crazy, your game will basically play itself. Forget the 144hz memes, this is hands down the biggest improvement you can make to your setup. Keep in mind that it'll dry up relatively quickly so make sure you add a bit more between maps for an optimal experience

If it feels like it's getting slower your wrist/arm movements are becoming smaller, focus on moving your hand/arm more to make it feel faster.

What I will say though is that once you start changing sens all the time it's like a disease, just find one and stick with it through the good and the bad and you'll probably have a better time.

Unironically though, silicone spray-on lubricant works wonders on a hard pad, if you put a little on and wipe it around with a paper towel. Pine-sol also does well, since it leaves a protective film behind that reduces friction.

Maybe because you are getting used to it?
I had that same feeling when I was going from 35.7cm/360 to 0.63cm/360 by steps so 25cm/360 20cm/360 etc..

A lot of things can be causing you to feel like this.

Roughly 6yrs ago I felt like I had the same issue you're having now. I had a 1000DPI mouse and my ingame sens was 4. This is equal to about 10.3cm/360 like you tried, and I moved my sens up to 6 making it so my sens was about 6.9cm/360, and I still felt that way. I tried a bunch of relatively high sensitivities and even tried mouse accel, always felt that way, so I looked up what kind of sensitivities a lot of FPS pros actually use. Found that a lot of them were playing with sensitivities in the 30cm to 75cm per 360 range for CS. So I decided to try ~23cm/360 after getting a new mouse (g400) and a QCK+ for more mousepad, and I started to aim more with my arm and less with my wrist/fingers and that feeling my sensitivity was to low went away in less than a month. After getting a 144Hz ~4years ago my sensitivity started to feel to high lol, and now I sit around ~52cm/360.

Somethings you might want to try.

-Try arm aiming use a lower sensitivity if you have to.
-Get different mouse feet Corepad (ones with rounded edges) and Hyperglides both work really well and usually have less friction against them than stock mouse feet.
-Try a different mousepad material, or size if necessary.
-Clean your mousepad, especially if you have a hard mousepad.
-Could also try a lighter mouse
-If you notice you press your mouse down into your desk/mousepad stop doing that, this will make it harder to move your mouse and create more wrist strain.
