Installing the pads

To maintain the properties of your non-slip kit over time, the pads must be applied to a new or a perfectly dewaxed or degreased surfboard. Do not apply at temperatures below 20°C. The surface of the board must be flat and uniform. Let sit a minimum of 2 hours before going in the water.

Chafing

Like with all non-slip solutions, certain skins may be more or less subject to irritation. Therefore, you are advised to wear a top, leggings or an isothermal wetsuit. Surfing bareback is not recommended.

Grip

Foot grip is perfectly sufficient for most surfers. Shortboarders are advised to combined a conventional EVA pad for the rear foot, with the nowax pad for the front foot.

In cold water, use booties for a better grip on the pad.

however, wax will provide better grip for shortboarders doing large manoeuvres.

Types of boards

The nowax pads can be used on all the hard boards (epoxy, polyester ) on the market.

Do use on foam surfboards.

Dimensions

Each diamond measures 19 cm X 12 cm.

After using or not using an EVA rear foot pad you can recover surfboards up to 8’6 with the 35 diamonds.

Example: on an 8’2 with no pad you’ll need between 30 and 32 diamonds taking into account the distance template provided.
