DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Grip and Ride Feel
The Traction Pad Team Front Mini features a textured, high-density EVA surface for a direct and secure connection to your board. You'll feel precise grip during technical manoeuvres, helping you maintain control through strapless tricks or surf kite sessions.
Compact Size for Enhanced Handling
Its mini design reduces weight and bulk on the deck, giving you greater freedom of movement and making it easier to place your foot exactly where you need it without getting in the way. This is especially practical on freestyle or smaller surf kiteboards.
Installation and Compatibility
Installation is simple thanks to the included 3M adhesive, and its compact size fits most kiteboards. We recommend thoroughly cleaning your board's surface before applying the pad and allowing time for the adhesive to cure for the strongest bond.
Durability and Construction
Made from high-density EVA, this pad is built to last while maintaining its superior grip. The material offers excellent resistance to water and wear, ensuring stable grip session after session.
Recommended Use
We recommend this pad if you're into strapless freestyle or surf kiting and are looking for a lightweight, low-profile, and super-grippy front pad. It works particularly well on compact boards around 4-5 feet.
Points to Note
This pack contains only the front pad. If you want a complete set, you'll need to add a rear pad separately. Also, check the condition of your board's deck before application to ensure a solid bond.
