Basic Five Traction PadThe Basic 5 surfboard traction pad is just what it sounds like, a basic all black, 5 piece pad. A low arch, medium kick and the added option of the extension pieces makes this pad versatile across a wide range of board tail shapes. It features our Micro Dot groove pattern giving it a light weight, responsive feel. Micro Dot traction absorbs less water and is less likely to rash your knees in tropical climates.
