Slater Designs 4-Piece Flat Traction Pad

Help make the world a cleaner place while getting top level performance with the Slater Design 4 Piece Traction. In keeping with Kelly’s commitment to sustainability, this 4 Piece Traction is the most eco-friendly traction pad on the market today. This traction pad is made from algae biomass harvested from freshwater sources throughout the world, and was designed for surfers looking for a more direct connection to their board, with the flat surface mimicking your front foot sensation. Cutout strips provide a closer connection to the board while the square traction grooves provide unparalleled grip, allowing the rider to power through turns and land those difficult maneuvers.

BLOOM | Made with Algae
BLOOM is a high-performance flexible foam made from algae biomass harvested from freshwater sources throughout the world. BLOOM's 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

They are 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.

This patented algae technology has 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.

Better for your surfing, better for the planet.
