Who This Pad Suits
The three-piece build and rolled ramp kick make this a good fit for surfers who want board feel through the cutouts along with a defined but rounded push point under the back foot, useful across everyday shortboard and performance surf sessions.
Installing and Maintaining It
Wipe the tail deck clean and dry before applying so the 3M adhesive sets properly, then press the three pieces down firmly, working out from the center arch toward the beveled edges so the pad lies flat and the ramp kick sits exactly where your back foot lands.
