FCS Nathan Florence Traction Pad The FCS Nathan Florence Grip is a 5-piece traction pad designed for high-performance surfing , perfect for shortboards and step-up boards . Developed with input from WSL champion Nathan Florence , this pad delivers control, comfort, and confidence across a wide range of wave sizes—from 2ft rollers to 20ft giants. Featuring diamond corduroy grooves and kick holes to reduce weight, the pad provides a secure, responsive feel underfoot while allowing natural board flex. Two extension panels can be placed in front of the main pad to support back foot movement on longer boards , giving surfers added versatility and precision. Nate’s signature bolt logo completes the design, combining performance and style in a no-nonsense traction pad built to handle serious surfing.
