About the Product

The Slater Designs 5 Piece Step Up Pad is Kelly Slater's traction pad of choice — developed with functional details conceived directly by the surfer himself. Inspired by the balance between performance and sustainability, it offers maximum board connection, superior control during maneuvers, and excellent response in high-performance surfing.

Performance-driven design:

  • V-cut tail kick to prevent the leash from getting tangled during surfing
  • Split central arch that improves sensitivity and rear foot positioning
  • Parallel grooves and square edges for a firmer and more secure feel with every maneuver
  • Increased control, speed, and projection in more aggressive turns

Fully adjustable 5-piece format:

Allows lateral spacing to be adjusted according to the surfer's preference — a more compact or more extended configuration, adaptable to different boards and surfing styles. Strategic cutouts reduce weight and bring the foot closer to the board for a more direct and precise connection.

Sustainable BLOOM Foam technology:

Developed in partnership with BLOOM Foam, a high-performance flexible foam made from algae harvested from freshwater areas affected by toxic blooms. The result is a more durable, lighter pad with better impact absorption compared to traditional foams — contributing to the recovery of aquatic ecosystems and reducing reliance on petroleum-derived materials.

Ideal for surfers seeking premium grip, comfort, durability, and a more sustainable approach to their surf equipment.
