Rip Curl 3 Piece Traction Pad

Rip Curl’s 3 Piece Traction Pad is an easy way to add that necessary extra traction when you’re in the water. The textured finish and kicktail raise in the rear give you something secure to plant that back foot on where all the pressure is applied when you’re turning.

Made from a high-density EVA foam (otherwise known as expanded rubber or rubber foam), traction pads are soft but durable. Rip Curl’s pads feature a diamond groove patterning to optimise grip. The base flex groove at the tail pad helps it to mould to the shape of the board for more effective adhesion.

A 3-piece traction pad gives you the ability to really play with how much coverage your tail pad gives you. Spacing the individual pads or tweaking the angles they sit at can change up how it looks and feels. Ultimately it’s not something you need to overthink, but it can be nice to have the option.

Rip Curl 3 Piece DLX Traction Deck Grip Features:

• Three-Piece: Means you’re able to fiddle with how much coverage you’d like from your tail pad. 
• High-Density Eva: This stuff is thin and won’t absorb water as it’s a closed-cell material. The exterior, even without wax, is naturally grippy.
• Deep Cut Diamond Groove: It’s a pattern that seems to work when it comes to grip.
• Base Flex Groove: Helps to establish superior adhesion as the pad moulds to your board.
• 9mm Arch: Moulding to the shape of your arch for an ergonomic feel underfoot.
• 25mm Kicktail: This stops your foot slipping back and means you can really sink your weight back into it.
• Easy Application: Clean your board’s tail, pick a spot, remove the adhesive cover and carefully apply (instructions included with product).
• Dimensions: L 315mm, W 316mm, A 9mm, K 25mm
• ?Wax Comb Stash Spot: ?Carry your wax comb in your tail pad to keep your deck grippy without having to paddle in our keep it in your pocket.
