Dakine Launch Surf Traction Pad

This pad is specifically engineered for smaller or narrower boards. Its design focuses on responsiveness and control, making it a great choice for high-performance shortboards where you want to minimize weight.

The three-piece construction offers a versatile fit, allowing you to space the pieces out to match the width of your tail. This is particularly useful if you have a board with a wider tail or simply prefer a specific amount of coverage.

Yes, the beveled edges are designed to reduce drag as water flows over the pad. While subtle, this helps ensure your board remains fast and responsive during turns and maneuvers.

A 7mm center arch is a moderate height that provides a solid reference point for your back foot without feeling overly intrusive. It offers enough leverage to help you lock in during turns while still allowing for quick foot adjustments.

The 25mm vertical wedge tail kick provides a substantial backstop, which is ideal for aggressive surfing and vertical maneuvers. It gives you a secure, locked-in feel when you need to push hard against the tail of your board.
