Call Sean Mattison. The website says they are sold out, but I bet he has some. These pads have great coverage for wide tails. They are all I use.

Hate Pads - eco wax - what size (in relation to your height are you talking about)
The SP is a board that can be propelled down the line by fast top to bottom rollercoasting if you will - it wont just generate its own speed, I found it slow to begin with then one your drive of the bottom turn good and hard - BOOM......

Hey All, use my Firewire email, [email protected] for emergency issues, not my forum inbox. However, please avoid contacting me directly with questions on choosing a board, just use the glorious forum. Cheers!
Hi, would it be a hard transition from surfing the frontfoot to being able to surf a backfooted board such as a sp?
Has anyone experience with it?
Yeah I'm pretty front footed. It took a while to adjust with plenty of hit and miss moments but I really enjoy the SP now.
I think this is the tail pad Prj is talking about. Looks the ticket for BP and SP style boards.
