These were my first carbon wraps from Kashiwai and the first boards I got to try my RIKT Tail Kickers on after they sent them out from the mainland. I video pretty much every session I surf, so I can actually pinpoint when my surfing changed. Once I started riding RIKT, my turns had more power, better timing, and way more connection to the board. Unlike foam pads that absorb pressure, the RIKT Tail Kicker transfers everything straight into the board, and you can feel the difference instantly.
Another thing that’s sick is the RIKT system is interchangeable, so when you get a new board you don’t have to keep buying new traction pads every time. Just swap it over to the next board and keep going. Saves money and creates way less waste too.

I never expected to find a new level of control in my surfing at age 69, especially after surfing Trestles for five decades. 🌊 But that’s exactly what happened the first day on my first wave riding a RIKT.
I don’t surf at the level of the pros out there at Lowers, but I can surf good enough to tell when something works. 🏎️💨
In this session I was test-driving one of the first flat top kick tails. For me at least if I feel more in control of my back foot, I don’t fall as much and I find myself attempting more aggressive maneuvers with more confidence which translates to more fun in the water.
I figured if these 33 degree 50mm high kick tails work for me then in the hands of a pro surfer they’re gonna be lethal. RIKT team riders are proving me right. 🏆

⚡️Kalani Garcia and Henry Mullen putting the RIKT system to work. Whether it’s Kalani taking the win in Panama on a RIKT 50mm Grip 2 traction pad or Henry getting the win at the WSA contest in Oceanside on a RIKT Grip 2 40mm traction pad, RIKT surf hardware is turning talent into trophies.
Why? All RIKTs have a real kick tail you can stand on with ramp angles engineered for efficient power transfer from your back foot to your board. The difference is easily felt and the results speak for themselves.
