Traction pad for prone board

[Matt]

Prone Traction Choices

New board is on the way, so I’m looking at traction options. I’ve seen people riding absolutely everything in terms of pads, so I’m wondering if we’re starting to settle on some best practices? Namely: Diamond vs grooved/corrugated. Security vs ability to easily shuffle feet position around? Tail & wax vs full pad. Why isn’t wax more commonly used? Asymmetrical pad placement vs normal pad placements Center raised shape vs completely flat.
