These pads are the best! On every board now and into the future. Ordering another set right now.
Quick to arrive and great product. I was unsure at first but now love the feel and grip. Will be ordering for my other boards.
Thank you so so so much Nathan. So glad and proud to receive feedback like that :D Mail me if you need any help. Martim
I am so glad to have my surfboard always with a good looking and no need to clean once in a while...
Thank you so much!!! Stay salty!
These work great in all conditions. It is shocking how grippy they are considering how thin they are. So nice not to wax my board.
Thank you so much for your review! Super proud to be part of your surf experience.
Absolut fantastic! I'm so happy that I can do something for our oceans and planet. The grip is good! I was, like you described, kind of annoyed to change the tax because of the temperature, or it was melting away in summer. I love it! Hope to inspire other surfers to change ☺️
Hi there!
Thank you so so so much for your feedback! I'm so glad our product has made a difference for you. Love your feedback and thank you again for your support! Have a great day ☺️
The grip is fine once they have activated by exposure to water, just allow a good 15mins for the first session, and then the first 5mins or so thereafter. Before they activate it’s a little like paddling a bar of soap 🙂.
Hi Paolo! Thank you for your review. We're glad to hear that the Longboard Surf Grip Pack worked well for you. We recommend allowing 15 minutes for the first session and 5 minutes thereafter for the grip to fully activate. We apologize for any initial slipperiness, but we're glad it ended up working out for you. Happy surfing!
Works fine on my catch foamie.
I was concerned if the pads stick properly, but after a few sessions it looks good
Great to hear that! :D
Just ordered another set because the first set of the wax pads works so well.
Thank you so much for your kind feedback! All the best, Martim
This is my fourth surf grip. I bought the first one in 2019 and it is still on my first board. I just bought a fourth board and I'm so happy that I bought these grips again. They are easy to install with the template and it sticks for a long time. They are transparent and you can see the board. They are perfect for surfing, no worries we are well glued to the board during the sessions. No sac on clothes or in the car. I recommend them
That makes me feel so so proud! Thank you!!!
I love the ideia and the way how it looks !Im in love with it. Love the fact that the board stay clean ! But I’m still not sure if the grip will work on every occasion. Still think Wax does a better job and sometimes I even add a little bit to the pads to make it perfect( for me). I would suggest to keep on working on the grip or maybe find something to add on to the pads to give it this extra grip. I am going to carry on using mine and maybe I will get used to it with time.. I recommend everyone to try 🤙🏻
Yohann, thank you for your honest feedback! All the best and stay salty, Martim
Bought it for my Dads birthday and he loved it works great!!!
I'm so glad to hear that your dad loved our grips! Thank you for choosing our product for his birthday gift. We hope he has many amazing rides with it. Happy surfing!
bought some a couple years ago, wore them out so I got more. So much better than wax as it does. not melt in your car or in your board bag
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review for our traction pads. We're so glad to hear that you love it and have been using it for a couple of years now. Thank you for your support, happy surfing! Best, Martim
Great product to avoid wax! It works perfect with water at 18oC or above and relaxed water. On cold water like 14-15oC with some turbulence it is not sticky and I would like.
Hey guys. Thank you for delivering the package to indonesia. Finally the pads are on my board and i couldn't be more surprised how well they work. It was a good decision to choose your product. One lil thing, maybe 2-4 more pads would be cool having on the board. But nevertheless best decision. Thank you, guys
I love these grips! I put the shortboard pack on a 7ft board that has no tail traction pad, so it might be nice to have a few more of the stickers, but that's my mistake. It's nice to finally be able to see the fun color of my board without a coat of grimy wax on top. I highly recommend Van der Waal!
I applied these to a Catch Surf brand foam board and the adhesive is holding up. As a relatively new surfee, Ive never used wax so i cant make a comparison, but i feel that these keep me on the board alittle better. I would have preferred that the placement tool be plastic, as the paper is flexible and requires alot more concentration to make sure it remains aligned; not a big deal, i just dont see why not even if it had to cost a dollar more. Shipping to the united states from this company was under two weeks.
Great product and I was amazed how grippy it actually is under foot. I used it for the first time yesterday 08/10/22 and I was pleasantly surprised at the impact it actually had on my surfing! Needless to say…. No more wax for me ever again! Life is always evolving so why not move with it!! Thank you 🙏
I almost cant believe how much grip these have, my foot felt glued to the board. And it's not a sandpaper texture like the last brand I tried so shouldn't damage my wetsuit.
The Van der Waal grips are spectacular, I've already bought two sets for my boards and I highly recommend them to everyone. Congratulations. Good job.
