About Creatures of Leisure Proto 1.4 Traction Pad
Creatures of Leisure Proto 1.4 Surfboard Traction Pad
The Creatures of Leisure Proto 1.4 Surfboard Traction Pad is a next-generation performance pad built to deliver advanced grip, comfort, and response for surfers pushing hard through critical maneuvers. Developed through extensive testing with World Champions Mick Fanning and Italo Ferreira, the Proto 1.4 reimagines modern traction with moulded technology and a world-first multi-directional grip pattern designed to keep you connected when it matters most.
At the center of the design is MULTI-LOC traction, precision engineered around the natural shape of the foot to create next-level multi-directional engagement. This gives the pad a highly locked-in feel while still allowing for fluid movement and control. The PRO-FORM arch adds comfort and support with a squishy base and contoured shape that hugs your foot and helps soften the impact of hard landings, while the RECOIL kick uses rear recoil mesh and a steep 46-degree kick to create a spring-loaded, responsive feel off the tail.
Built with sustainability in mind, the Proto 1.4 is designed to reduce its footprint through reduced industrial waste, recyclable packaging, and EcoPure materials. Whether you are surfing progressive shortboards or simply want one of the most advanced traction pads available, the Creatures Proto 1.4 offers premium grip, projection, and comfort in a refined 3-piece layout.
