Ivan Florence Pro Series Traction
The Ivan Florence Round Tail Pro Pad is part of VEIA's performance traction lineup developed around the needs of its team riders. This model gives surfers an Ivan Florence signature option specifically shaped around round-tail surfboards.
Designed for Round Tails
Rather than using the wider outline found on a typical squash-tail pad, this version is shaped for round-tail applications. The narrower rear profile makes it a natural match for performance shortboards and other surfboards with round or pintail tail shapes.
Choosing a traction pad that follows the shape of the board's tail can help provide useful traction coverage without excessive pad material extending toward the rails.
3-Piece Traction Pad
The three-piece construction allows the individual sections to be positioned during installation to better match the width and contours of your surfboard. This gives you some flexibility when setting up the pad for your particular board.
Performance-Focused Back Foot Traction
A tail pad gives your back foot a consistent traction surface and a physical reference point for positioning over the working area of the surfboard's tail. This can be especially useful on performance-oriented boards where accurate rear-foot placement is important when driving through turns.
Choosing the Right VEIA Tail Pad
The Ivan Florence Round Tail Pro Pad is intended for surfers using a round or pintail surfboard. If your board has a substantially wider squash, swallow, or fish-style tail, another VEIA traction shape may provide a better match for the board's outline.
