FCS Julian Wilson Traction | JW's signature pad, built for grip and less weight

Julian Wilson surfs fast and lands big, and his signature pad is built for exactly that: more grip and less weight. Thinner EVA, extra perforations and defined channels through the arch keep your back foot locked on through hard turns and airs, while staying light enough that you can still feel the board underneath you. The stealth Black/Charcoal colourway sits clean on any deck.

Key Technical Features

• 3-piece pad: Fits most performance shortboard tails and lets you fine-tune placement.
• Double square groove: Sanded surfaces for grip that holds when you push hard.
• Trapeze arch bar: Locks your back foot in place through turns.
• High tail kick: A solid reference point for snaps, pivots and landings.
• Thin EVA and channels: Ultra-thin for sensitivity, with perforations and channels for extra resistance and less weight.

Why You'll Love It

For performance shortboarders who want a proven athlete pad with real grip and a lighter, more sensitive feel underfoot. Stick it on and push as hard as you like.
