DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Natural Grip for Better Control
The Nomads cork pad features a non-slip surface that massively improves barefoot control. You'll feel instantly more locked-in, making manoeuvres and re-acceleration out of turns feel smoother. The cork holds its grip even when wet, giving you confidence and precision on your directional board.
Comfort and Feel Underfoot
The natural elasticity of cork provides excellent cushioning to reduce foot fatigue. It absorbs shocks and bumps from the water, making your sessions more comfortable, especially on long days or in choppy water.
Eco-Friendly and French-Made
Made in the Landes region of France from 85% recycled cork and 15% natural bark, this pad demonstrates a real environmental commitment. This local production process cuts CO2 emissions by 62%-a huge plus if you want to reduce your footprint.
Durable and Naturally Styled
Produced by a company with the prestigious EPV (Living Heritage Company) label, this pad combines durability with premium craftsmanship. Its natural look and understated design complement any board, while its construction is built to last through countless sessions.
Practical Performance: Lightweight and Waterproof
The cork is both lightweight and waterproof, so it won't add weight to your board or degrade in the water. You get improved handling without sacrificing durability in saltwater conditions.
