Our favorite front foot pad (and probably yours too).
Ultra thin and extremely sensitive - this pad has minimal lift to keep your foot as close to the deck of your surfboard as possible.
Ultra-fine rectangle tread make this pad non-intrusive and maintains a natural feeling. We’ve sized it so that additional deck wax isn’t necessary, and it also fits grom-sized surfboards.
Made with algae.
BLOOM is a high-performance flexible foam made from algae biomass harvested from freshwater sources throughout the world. BLOOM's foam process:
• Helps improve the quality of waterways by removing excess algae that harms plants, animals, and people who rely on the ecosystem for survival.
• Recirculates fresh water back into the habitat.
• Aids CO2 capture and sequestration. We’re literally scraping pond scum, solar drying, and pulverizing it before foaming the material to create a pad that helps re-balance the natural ecology, and reduces our dependence on non-renewable oil.
This patented algae technology has created a product with increased durability, improved shock absorption and reduced weight over conventional foams. The packaging is made with post-consumer backing, soy-based inks and a biodegradable wrapping.
Better for your surfing, better for the planet.
