The FCS Kalohe Andino surf traction pad is a high-performance grip developed and tested together with Kolohe Andino, one of the most dynamic and creative surfers on the world tour. It is part of the FCS Athlete Series, a collection created in collaboration with the best surfers in the world, where each model is designed to suit each rider’s surfing style.
This pad is designed for surfers who need a balance between mobility and grip, allowing you to constantly adjust the position of your back foot during maneuvers without losing control when it’s time to lock in and push hard through the fins.
As Kolohe Andino himself explains:
“I move my back foot a lot when I surf, sometimes I even place it on the kick during turns, so everything on this pad has been designed to balance movement and grip exactly when I need it.”
Designed for Kolohe Andino’s dynamic surfing
The focus of this grip is on the adaptability of the back-foot support, allowing quick transitions between freedom of movement and maximum traction. It’s an ideal pad for surfers who don’t keep a fixed stance, but instead constantly adjust their posture to generate speed, angles and power.
