Monster Paint Traction, Reducing the Need for Wax

 

Primarily targeted to be used on the nose of the surfboard, this alternative to wax has received the endorsement of several top athletes, including Gerry Lopez and Chuck Patterson

The clear spray paint is applied primarily to the nose of the board, allowing the surfer to have plenty of grip without the hassle of having to apply and reapply wax. And if you have any graphics on the nose of your board -- say, some artwork or a set of sponsorship stickers -- Monster Paint not only makes it much more visible than when wax is applied, but also makes the colors much more vibrant than otherwise.

In his endorsement, Lopez said: "I recommend Monster Paint, the non-slip clear texture coating that brilliantly shows the manufacturers label, Hawaiian prints, Airbrush colors, pin line and even stick-on logos. Don't worry about slipping off ever again."

A host of local standout surfers in Southern California has joined the Monster Paint Team, including Kevin Connelly, Richie Cravey, Jesse Timm, Lucas Dirkse, David Araganda, Ron Greene, Tom English, John Haffy, and others. The endorsement of all these top athletes has gotten the attention of several surfers and many are adopting the solution to a wax free nose.
