FCS Otis Carey Athlete Series Traction Pad
Built with the FCS Otis Carey pro surfer, this traction pad has its grooves, kicks and arches dialled in to match a real surfer's footwork, not just glued on for looks. If you've been hunting for an FCS traction pad that actually locks your back foot in place, this is the athlete series pad that does it.
Materials and Construction
- Made from Eco EVA
- 1 piece pad design
- Diamond groove, a high profile diamond shaped groove with larger spacing that locks your foot in place
- Sabre arch, a large tapered square design built for larger feet and maximum coverage
Who It Is For
This pad suits surfers who want more surface area and a stronger heel to arch connection, whether you are paddling out at a local South Florida beach break or loading up the boat with boards for a weekend session. The larger Sabre arch shape is aimed at riders with bigger feet or anyone who wants full coverage under the back foot rather than a minimal kick pad.
Fit, Application, and Care
Clean and dry the deck of your board before applying so the adhesive backing bonds properly. Press firmly along the diamond groove pattern to seat the pad, and give it time to fully cure before your first session. Rinse the pad with fresh water after saltwater use and keep it out of prolonged direct sun when the board is stored, since EVA traction can break down faster with constant UV exposure.
