Do you hate waxing your surfboard before each session? Gotta borrow wax from someone in the parking lot?
And then you have to worry about the wax melting on your car, or melting off your board if you leave it out in the sun?
This front traction pairs perfectly with our rear pads... same materials and grip pattern.
Front traction pads on surfboards are becoming a lot more popular lately.
Guys like Noa Deane and Dion Agius have been using deck pads for a while, but there’s a swarm of more “average” surfers using them now.
And for good reason.
With a front pad, you eliminate the need for wax on your board.
No waxing it up before every surf session, no worrying about it melting all over your car or off you board when you leave it in the sun.
Just good traction.
Remove any wax from your surfboard.
Leave it in the sun so the wax starts to melt, then scrape it off.
Remove any residue with your choice of household cleaner and paper towel. (We don't recommend using wax remover, as this can leave a slippery residue)
It is very important to have a clean board before you apply the front traction pads, otherwise they will not stick properly!
Lay the pads on your board, to find the perfect placement.
Stand next to your board, with your normal stance, to determine where to put the front traction.
You can mark on your surfboard with a pencil or marker, where you want the front pads to go.
Carefully peel the backing off front pads, and lay them on the board, one at a time.
Firmly press on the entire area of the pads so they properly adhere to your board.
Wait 24 hours before surfing for complete adhesion.
