The GRIPD surfboard traction pack is a brilliant alternative to traditional surfboard wax. GRIPD is UK company, the grip has been developed in the UK and is made here too so the carbon footprint is massively reduced, no flying in from China with all that entails eco wise. Use it in conjunction with a tail pad for maximum effect. GRIPD surf grip allows you to surf without the need for wax, a clean, green alternative that is low maintenance and long-lasting. It’s a hexagonal surfboard grip for the environmentally conscious and who have had enough of melting wax going everywhere, or even worse forgetting your wax, funny how its always firing when that happens!

The 30 piece pack will be fine for boards up to 7' 0. It's a clear non-skid alternative to surf wax, easy to install and it requires next to no maintenance. It’s crystal-clear which means that your surfboard will always look like new, and it doesn’t melt, so your board will never get discoloured by wax and it keeps your surfboard bag, your car or your clothes wax free. The GRIPD pads are thinner than some others on the market so feels good to surf with. The grip itself is light and soft, its gives great traction every time. It doesn’t matter if the water is tropical or freezing cold it works just the same. If you’re lucky enough to be surfing in boardshorts then don’t worry its not going to tear your chest to pieces like some other deck grips used to, this stuff is soft enough to be comfortable even with no wetsuit or vest. Its easy to apply and remove if you don’t like the feel of it, if you do remove it it’ll lose its traction so you won’t be able to stick it onto another board.

This is such a good system, we've wave tested it here and it does everything you would want board grip to do. A truly viable alternative to wax that looks great and works! Allow a few sessions or 3-4hrs of use as it can take some people longer than others to adjust when using alternative traction for the first time.
