Traction Pads

Traction pads provide deck grip for watersports boards. A step up from wax, pads are best made with a closed cell (non-water absorbent) foam and a strong adhesive that stays stuck when wet for an extended period of time. A good pad gives your rear foot more grip on the board, boosts force in maneuvers and focuses your stride placement points. All Hammer Traction is proudly Made in the USA!

Add grip and control

Skimboard traction helps keep foot placement consistent through repeated runs, turns, and spins. Choose arch bars or deck grip when you want added control without relying only on wax.

Building a complete setup? Pair traction with a properly sized Wave Zone skimboard and a protective skimboard bag.
