The Session Front is a flat three-piece front pad for surfers chasing board feel and confidence under the front foot.
Corduroy traction allows repositioning between manoeuvres, with grip underfoot when leaning into a carve or driving down the line. The flat profile keeps the front-foot platform free of a raised arch.

The right gear, a clear fit and a real person to help.
Compare the pad’s dimensions, number of pieces, arch and kick with your board’s tail shape and your preferred stance. Check the stated deck compatibility before buying; a pad intended for a hard surfboard should not be assumed suitable for a softboard.
Send us your board model if you’d like help matching it.
Check whether this is a front pad, tail pad or another grip format, then compare its pieces, arch and kick with your stance and board. Test the layout before peeling the backing.
Follow the installation directions, removing wax and preparing a clean, dry, compatible deck. Do not assume hard-board adhesive is suitable for a softboard.
Summer vibes hardware has a 12-month guarantee against manufacturing defects from the date of purchase, for the original purchaser with proof of purchase. Normal wear, accidental damage and misuse are not manufacturing defects.
See the warranty and returns policy for your category’s terms and exclusions. If you need help, contact us with your order details and clear photos. This cover is in addition to your Australian Consumer Law rights.
