New Sanding Pad for 2009

With the introduction of this new FLEXPAD design comes a change in surfboard sanding tools for 2009. If you have sanded using a FLEXPAD in the past, you know how true they run. Our challenge is to make them last longer under heavier workloads and varying RPM levels.

Last winter, I developed a multi-layer foam combination using high pressure molding and a new hard shell foam. The hard shell white foam on top of the Orange Hard and the Red Medium FLEXPAD transfers the cutting edge and the flex point more towards the outside of the pad. This results in less stress on the center area and extends the life of the pad.

After 7 months of testing in all kinds of applications, it is ready to go! With very positive feedback, I guarantee you will not be disappointed with its performance.

8" Red Medium FLEXPAD
This new FLEXPAD design was released in July of this year.

"As with all my FLEXPAD products, these are tested with experience and constructed with quaility. KEEP SANDING!"--Jerry
