Captain Fin Co. Infantry

While it can technically fit, the Infantry is specifically oversized for hybrid shapes and larger shortboards. If you are riding a narrow, high-performance shortboard, you might find the pad's footprint a bit too wide for your tail.

Not at all. The flat profile is designed to give you a more direct connection to the board's deck, which many surfers prefer for board feel. The grip comes from the diamond pattern, which provides reliable traction without the added bulk of an arch bar.

The kick tail features beveled edges specifically to prevent that issue. This design allows for a smooth transition when you move your foot back, minimizing the risk of snagging your wetsuit during transitions.

It uses 3M Pro Grade adhesive, which is the industry standard for high-quality traction pads. As long as you apply it to a clean, dry, and wax-free surface, it will provide a secure, long-lasting bond.

The two-piece design offers more versatility. It allows you to adjust the width of the pad to better match the specific tail width of your board, ensuring you get the right amount of coverage where you need it.
