DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Comfort and Control
The Traction Pad Front 2026 is made from high-density EVA, offering the perfect balance of comfort, durability, and hold. It dampens vibrations and keeps your feet locked in during surf turns and surfoil maneuvers, giving you more control and confidence on your board.
Courdoroy Cut for Enhanced Feel
The new Courdoroy cut increases comfort without compromising on grip. It provides a softer feel underfoot, perfect for long or technical sessions, while still delivering the reliable traction you need when loading up the board.
Strategic Cutouts for Responsiveness
The cutouts lighten the pad and increase responsiveness underfoot. You'll enjoy a livelier feel that aids in quick transitions and position adjustments, without compromising overall grip.
Versatility and Compatibility
Compatibility with the new Insert Pad lets you add straps to a wide range of boards. We recommend this solution if you want to switch between strapless riding and sessions with straps without changing your board.
