Build and Materials

Who This Pad Suits
This is a unisex pad for surfers who want a defined tail kick for driving off turns without a raised arch splitting the foot, useful for riders who prefer a flatter stance under the back foot. It fits the same range of South Florida sessions as the rest of the Octopus lineup, from a quick paddle out at a local break to a full day on a boat run down the coast.
Installing and Caring for It
Clean and dry the tail area of the deck before applying so the pad's adhesive backing seats fully, and let it cure before pushing hard on it in the water. Rinse the OCTO Groove texture with fresh water after sessions, since sand worked into the grooves over time is what eventually dulls the traction and loosens the adhesive edge.
