Zap Skimboards Lazer Tail Pad

Yes, the Lazer Tail Pad is designed to be universal and fits most standard skimboards. Because it is a single-piece pad, ensure you have enough surface area on your board's tail to accommodate the dimensions before applying.

The heel kick provides a physical barrier at the back of the pad, allowing you to push against it during aggressive turns and maneuvers. This helps lock your back foot in place, giving you more leverage and preventing your foot from slipping off the tail.

Absolutely. This pad uses marine-grade adhesive specifically formulated to withstand constant exposure to saltwater and sand. As long as you apply it to a clean, dry, and wax-free surface, it will maintain a secure bond.

No, the EVA foam construction is closed-cell, meaning it is water-resistant and won't soak up moisture. This keeps the pad lightweight and prevents it from becoming waterlogged during your sessions.

The most important step is preparation. Thoroughly remove all old wax and residue from your board using a scraper and a wax remover or citrus-based cleaner, then wipe the surface clean with rubbing alcohol. Once applied, press firmly across the entire pad and let it cure for at least 24 hours before hitting the water.
