Maybe use that rubbery drawer liner stuff....wrap it around the saddle fenders, or put over the seat somehow...to create a bit of grip. Not elegant, but maybe?
Riding in Scotland a few years ago the rain pants were a necessity. I automatically put my suede half chaps (the cheapest available at State Line Tack) OVER the rain pants. Worked like a charm and gave me the grip I needed. Our guide took one look and pulled his half-chaps from under to over his rain pants as well, with a big grin "don't know why I didn't think of this years ago", he said. they are also washable in cold water (the half-chaps) and while they dry stiff, supple up nicely with use.
