The Slater Designs 5-Piece Action Pad gives you Kelly’s favourite arch, and a picture of his favourite dog, too.
You’ll see the elements Kelly designed himself immediately: a 'V' on the tail kick to prevent your leash from catching in the middle, and a slit arch too. The arch support is just as wide as the arch support on the 3 and 5–piece arch pads, but lower. It’s the exact feel that Kelly was chasing by cutting trenches into his arch support earlier this year. The square grooved edges on either side of the parallel slits will give you a ‘hooked in’ feeling that other arch supports don’t. The Action Pad also gives you options; the choice to ride either a longer pad or a shorter pad, depending on how you chose to lengthen the side pieces away from each other, or closer to each other.

BLOOM is a high-performance flexible foam made from algae biomass harvested from freshwater sources throughout the world. The BLOOM 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.
Through this patented algae-technology, surfers now have access to 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.
By choosing this traction, you are helping to make the world a cleaner place.
