The Channel Islands Yerterday Arch Tail surf grip is a high-performance surf pad designed to offer an optimal combination of light weight, grip and quick response. Its new manufacturing process introduces an evolution in the construction of EVA foam, maintaining the same BioGrip Natural EVA material, but with a more compact and sealed finish.
The result is a thinner, lighter and more responsive pad without sacrificing traction or durability.
This model incorporates the innovative Thermo Press process, which uses CI's Mixed Groove pattern and subjects it to special thermal pressure. This reduces the overall thickness of the pad and seals the EVA foam, improving durability and the direct feel underfoot.
Its design is optimized with an extra-wide outline, ideal for fish-type boards or wider shapes, offering greater coverage and control.
