Tailpads

A surf tail pad can be a great addition to your board because it can transform the slippery surface of your board into a surface that gives you grip and traction so that you can stay on your feet and get power from your board. Although it is not essential, many people enjoy the benefits that come from adding a tail pad to their board.

What are Surfboard Tail Pads and How Can They Help You?

When you first get a surfboard, it is smooth and slippery, so it is near impossible to stay on the board. Before you try out your board you must work on it so that it has enough grip or traction to allow you to stay upright. There are two ways that you can make sure that there will be enough grip or traction on your board. One is surfboard wax, and one is surf tail pads. Each of these options has its own pros and cons, but both help to make sure that you can stay on your feet while you are surfing.

Tail pads are stuck directly onto the tail end of your board. They can be a long-lasting, and low maintenance option, which you don’t have to worry about melting in the heat. They also come in a variety of different styles and colours that add a more unique character to your board, making it more identifiable as yours. They can also be made out of different materials that can be more comfortable for your feet.

Whether you choose to use a tail pad or surfboard wax is usually down to personal preference.
