Tired of buying expensive surfboard traction pads that stomp your surf budget? Have you purchased a cheap surf traction pad that was ripping instead of you?
Surf Squared now offers a minimalist design, 3-piece surfboard traction pad that offers maximum performance:
- EPIC EVA: Ultra-light, supple EVA foam with the professionally proven diamond grip pattern will help you land more maneuvers.
- TECH TAIL KICK: The edges of the 28mm tail kick have been beveled to increase drive by reducing drag. The tail kick ramp goes vert to lock your foot in place.

I have been surfing for over 20 years, i love supporting my local shops but i am not ok paying double or tripple for the same product. This track pad was just right. Affordable, and does the job just as well as others.

Great fit. I like the arch in the middle. Also, the tail kick isn’t too aggressive. The material is soft yet durable. Great choice in my opinion.I have this saved in my Amazon list so when I need another pad, I’ll buy the same one.

These are just as good as Octopus corduroy or Mystic Ambush traction pads, and they're half the price of the big name brands. I have boards with the aforementioned name brands and these Squares, I've compared them side by side, and there's no difference in the thickness, density, or grip. I've had the Squares on my daily driver for the past year and a half and it's still like-new. These are a great value and I will continue to use them as long as they're sold. Bravo.

pads have gotten ridiculously expensive lately, $60 are you kidding!? so i have been looking for a cheap pad. was going to buy from ebay but still ended up being like $40, so i checked on amazon and the reviews for this pad were pretty decent so i thought what do i have to lose, i can return it if looks cheap. i was so pleasantly surprised, it feels better than my usual FCS T-3 pad! took it out in the surf today and it felt so good, no sliding no slipping. the back kick kept my back foot secure. if you are on the fence just order!

For a small brand on Amazon,It’s just as good as the the BIG NAME TRACTION PADDS!!Hands UPP!!I never understand the phrase“Hands down” ?But I’m saying both HANDS UP !!! Wave around like you just done care!!lol…It’s a great front pad.Feels like soft corduroy.The tail pads are SUPER SOFT, and that’s the downfall in those,I like my tail pads a little more hard and grippy..But they are so good still , well worth buying for $19-$25 compared to $55-$85!!So a lil softer on the material but that’s good for your knee when duck diving and geting those kneee rashes, or whatever else that touches the pad.I’ve said too much already, GO SURF.

Does the trick. I prefer flat pads. Check. I also like that it is black without glaring branding. It was easy to put on and seems pretty solid. The pad comes with no instructions- which is no big deal to me, but I think it is important to let the glue set for at least 24 hours before surfing. Not a great fit for a fish, but i couldn't warrant spending 2x as much for a track pad designed specifically for a fish. Yes, purist I know...why would you put a traction pad on a fish.... I have been known to step off the back before so they help. Also a good pushing point for a cold water duck dive with 7 mil boots.

***update***So it is still a bummer that two pads peeled up right away, but i super glued them back down in the troublesome corner and I haven't had any issues with it peeling up anywhere else. The grip is super nice and these are cheap, I think even with the hassle, I would still have to recommend them, and I will still buy them again for my next board.Grip is awesome, but front deck peeled up after under an hour in the water. Put on a brand new board the night before, started coming up in front corner, pushed it down, then the back end peeled up. Sides are sticking ok.Just went out again, another brand new board, exactly same thing, same spot, peeling up in less than half an hour. Two for two fail on the front deck....super bummed
