    don't think its going to be that big of a help on a funboard. the pad over the fins is really a shortboard concept. with a longer board you have to move around too much for a pad to be effective. stick with wax or switch to a shortboard.

    Why would you need a traction pad on a 7'8". You're never going to be that far back on the board.

    it would work on that board but retro purists would insist that you should ride it with wax the way they did in the 70s.
