I came across these after the deck pads I'd been using were apparently discontinued during the pandemic.
After over 500 waves surfed on this board, this pad is holding up great. No edges are coming up yet, and no signs of wear yet. Some rash on my forearms from surfing decent sized beach break a handful of days in a row and being on and off the board a lot taking sets on the head, but that's pretty normal for me even for a pretty soft pad. So, I'd say it is not an overly abrasive pad like some that are out there, but it still has solid traction. I like the built in tail kicker, as I had previously been buying separate foot stop traction pads which are becoming hard to find, and they aren't as aesthetically pleasing either (if that concerns you). A kicker is kind of key for me for keeping myself from dropping my rear foot off the back of the board when setting up for turns.
It'd be cool to have shorter versions available, since my boards are generally in the 7' range (+/- 4 inches). I am left with a good amount of extra pad. That's useful for repairs, and after accumulating a few I can use the extra to do a new board and just buy a rear traction pad with tail kick for that one, but still, it'd be a nice option for me.
So, hopefully these stick around as I will likely be using them on all my new boards now.

Way more pieces than I needed for my pelican paddle board. That's why my picture doesn't match the listing. But thep pieces all for beautifully. It was also very easy to cut around my hand hold in the center. Had a small defect on one of the pieces, but the company, within 24 hrs, responded to my product help message and is sending me a replacement. Would definitely buy from them again!

Product fits description. Easy to cut & fit. 3M adhesive is excellent (I used a small rigid plastic roller to apply firmly) - but be sure to remove any poorly adhered materials and ensure surface is smooth (the adhesive sticks better than many paints and will pull bad paint off preferentially). Final surface material is comparable to the standing areas of one of our expensive SUPs.

I purchased this product to protect my paddle board from dog toe nails and it has worked very well. I have had up to 5 dogs on my board at a time and no holes! It has the added benefit of better foot traction as well so I am more stable on my board. I am a new as well as older paddle boarder and safety is very important to me. I would recommend this product.

Excellent quality product, easy to apply. The only thing worth mentioning is that the color was different than it appears in the photo example. I ordered gray, and the pictures look like it's a darker, charcoal gray. It's actually much lighter. Still a great color and product, worth 5 stars for sure, but the color may be a bit different than what you expect.
