Octopus Front Deck Corduroy Grip Surf Traction

A front deck pad provides consistent, reliable grip that doesn't melt or wear off during long sessions. It also offers a slightly more cushioned feel under your chest when paddling and helps you lock your front foot into specific positions during aggressive maneuvers.
