OAM Cory Lopez Signature Surfboard Traction Pad

The high arch provides a distinct contour under your foot, which helps with leverage and positioning. It is particularly useful if you prefer a locked-in feel when driving through turns or if you want to easily locate the center of your tail pad without looking down.

The three-piece construction allows you to customize the width of the pad to fit your specific surfboard tail. You can spread the pieces further apart for wider boards or keep them tighter together for narrower squash or pin tails.

Yes, the medium kick tail offers a reliable backstop for your foot during sharp turns and maneuvers. It provides enough leverage to push against without being so high that it feels obstructive when you are just cruising or setting up for a wave.

This pad is designed for standard shortboards and performance shapes. Because of its three-piece modular design, it is versatile enough to fit most tail shapes, though it is best suited for boards with a defined tail area where you need consistent grip.

The grip pattern is designed to be reliable in various water temperatures. While traction pads are generally consistent, ensure your board is clean and dry before application to maximize the adhesive bond, which is the most critical factor for performance in colder conditions.
