Channel Islands Reef Heazlewood Surfboard Tail Pad

Channel Islands Reef Heazlewood 3 Piece Arch Pad

The Channel Islands Reef Heazlewood 3 Piece Arch Pad is a high-performance traction pad built for surfers who want secure grip, responsive board feel, and dependable control through critical maneuvers. Designed with input inspired by the performance demands of CI team riders, this pad combines a proven 3-piece layout with premium materials and a refined traction pattern to keep your back foot locked in when it matters most.

CI’s mixed groove grip pattern combines two different textures into one performance-focused surface. Using the Lined-Up pattern as the base and blending it with a diamond groove, this pad creates a super grippy traction feel that helps improve control, connection, and confidence through turns, pumps, and fast directional changes. Built from BioGrip natural EVA foam, the Reef Heazlewood pad offers lightweight comfort and responsive feel without sacrificing durability.

A 6mm oval arch adds supportive comfort underfoot, while the 30mm vertical kick with grooved and beveled corners helps keep your back foot planted during hard surfing off the tail. Finished with 3M® Marine Grade adhesive for dependable hold, the Channel Islands Reef Heazlewood 3 Piece Arch Pad is a strong choice for surfers looking for premium traction with clean performance styling.
