Firewire 3 Piece Lowrider Arch Traction Pad
Thin for board feel. Subtle and simple in design.
The Lowrider was created for maximum sensitivity between your foot and the deck of your surfboard, enabling grip and control on any surfboard. This pad provides a more natural feeling when compared to larger tread patterns with its thin rectangular grooves, and has a low incline tail kick trimmed at the heel and toe edge of either side of the pad. It has just enough elevated surface area behind your back foot to enable turns as tight as you can drive them with an extra firm arch bar, creating one of our favorite eco-friendly traction pads yet.
Materials
Made with Algae
BLOOM is a high-performance flexible foam made from algae biomass harvested from freshwater sources throughout the world. The BLOOM Foam process:
• Helps improve the quality of waterways by removing excess algae that harms plants, animals, and people who rely on the ecosystem for survival.
• Recirculates fresh water back into the habitat.
• Aids CO2 capture and sequestration. We’re literally scraping pond scum, solar drying, and pulverizing it before foaming the material to create a pad that helps re-balance the natural ecology, and reduces our dependence on non-renewable oil.Through this patented algae-technology, we have created a product with increased durability, improved shock absorption and reduced weight over conventional foams. The packaging is made with post-consumer backing, soy-based inks and a biodegradable wrapping.
By choosing this traction, you are helping make the world a cleaner place.
