Machado 2+1 Flat Traction

BLOOM is a high-performance flexible foam made from algae biomass harvested from freshwater sources throughout the world. The BLOOM Foam process

Helps improve the quality of waterways by removing excess algae that harms plants, animals, and people who rely on the ecosystem for survival
Recirculates fresh water back into the habitat
Aids CO2 capture and sequestration. We’re literally scraping pond scum, solar drying, and pulverizing it before foaming the material to create a pad that helps re-balance the natural ecology, and reduces our dependence on non-renewable oil

Through this patented algae-technology, we have created a product with increased durability, improved shock absorption and reduced weight over conventional foams. The packaging is made with post-consumer backing, soy-based inks and a biodegradable wrapping

By choosing this traction, you are helping make the world a cleaner place

The 2 + 1

One pad for every board

The two plus one can either be a two-piece flat pad or a three-piece flat pad, depending on how wide of a flat pad you want

Inspired by the wide tails on Rob Machado’s more grovely board models, this pad works well on shapes like Rob’s Moonbeam or even wider tails like Dan Mann’s Chumlee

Designed with square tread, it enables board feel with   extreme sensitivity; a favorite tread for surfers who haven’t traditionally loved traction
