Riversurf / Wakesurf Edition 9 + 2 elements
If you wanted to do without wax on your surfboard, you had no choice but to glue on a thick EVA front pad. However, many people were deterred by the appearance of such a solution. Now, with HexaTraction, there is a product on the market that not only looks sexy, but also offers optimal grip in all temperatures. We have already tested it extensively and are thrilled. Finally a real innovation on the surf market!
All surfers who have tested it so far and were skeptical whether such a solution offers enough grip have confirmed to us that this solution offers enough grip for every surf style and is not aggressive to the skin
This kit is suitable for riversurf and wakesurf boards, it contains less elements than the normal kit (see third article picture). With this kit you can cover about as much surface as with a conventional EVA frontpad
XXI Century Surfboard Grip & Traction, #nowax #noshit #nomess
High performance glue for best possible adhesive properties
1 kit (box) comes with 9 whole hexagon elements and 2 half hexagon elements with 16cm (6.3").
HexaTraction RSPro® board grip&traction uses a strong adhesive. If you need to remove it, we advise you to use a hair dryer or heat gun to slightly heat the adhesive to soften it and make it easier to remove. Especially if your board is painted or coated.
- Easy to install
- Great grip
- Does not change the look of colored surfboards
- Self adhesive
- UV stable and non aggressive adhesive
- Do not install it in a cold environment. We recommend installing it at room temperature. Below 20ºC (68F) the material and adhesive tend to become stiff, making installation difficult.
- Clean the area thoroughly with alcohol or similar. Make sure there is no wax residue. Avoid industrial cleaners.
- Before you begin, lay out the HexaTraction hexagons and choose the best pattern to cover the area where you need grip and traction.
- PRO-TIP: Peel off exactly half of the adhesive layer on the first HexaTraction hexagon to make it super easy to line up with the centerline of the panel.
- Pour lots of water. Plenty!!! It will help to not have air bubbles.
- Stick half of the hexagon on and make sure all the air and water is squeezed out by rubbing with your fingers and/or a cloth. Remove the other half of the pad and squeeze out all the air and water.
- PRO TIP: Press from the center to the edges or from side to side to get all the air and water out.
- Using the black HexaTraction star as a template, go through the deck one hexagon at a time.
- PRO TIP: Align the hexagon with the side where the adhesive surface is attached.
- Complete the layout using the half hexagons if needed.
- You are done. Check all the hexagons and make sure all the water is out. Let it dry (not in the sun) and let it cure for a few hours before going in the water.
