      • Peel the back off of the new traction pad to reveal the adhesive.

      • When placed, the traction pad should be about an inch away from the rear binding.

      • To avoid creating air bubbles, start with one corner of the pad and roll the rest down.

      • Press down firmly to help it stick to the board and remove any air bubbles that may have occurred.

      • Give the adhesive a minimum of 12 hours to dry before use.
