Surf Front Grip Pad

“You can fuckin’ land in the flats and stick things. Your feet are just planted so good. It actually works really good in big barrels, too. Like, coming over foam balls and shit, your feet are just stuck so you can make them a bit easier.
Why wouldn’t you want your front foot and back foot to be on the same surface? Like, with skating, both feet are on grip tape. You wouldn’t put your back foot on grip tape and your front foot on wax or something, or vice versa, coz that’d be fuckin’ weird” (Noa Deane)

A traction pad comes in handy to increase your grip on your board, which helps surfing. Even though wax already helps a ton, some surfers prefer the use of a grip pad. A front pad gives you grip for your front foot. Check for example the front pads from Hayden, Octopus and Creatures.
