VEIA Explorer Waveform 3 Piece Round Tail Surf Traction Pad
The VEIA Explorer Waveform 3 Piece Round Tail Surf Traction Pad is built for surfers riding round and pin tail boards who want maximum performance with a more refined fit through narrower tail shapes. VEIA says this pad is optimized specifically for round and pin tail surfboards, bringing style and control to boards where proper pad placement and tail shape compatibility really matter. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
This Waveform design features a parallel cut through the pad for cleaner placement and a sleeker overall look. VEIA also highlights the low 7mm arch, preferred by ambassador Victor Bernardo for progressive free surfing, as a strong option for surfers who want a less aggressive feel without going fully flat. The result is a traction pad that feels connected, comfortable, and responsive under the back foot. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
Built with SuperSoft EVA, a diamond grip pattern, and a 45-degree to vertical 25mm kick, the Explorer Waveform Round Tail Pad is designed to provide secure grip, reliable leverage, and clean board feel through turns and critical maneuvers. VEIA lists recyclable packaging as part of the build as well. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
