Waxless Surfing arrives to Majorca.
Surfer Xavi Lucena tests for the first time RSPro solution for waxless surfing: the combination of the sustainable Front Deck Grip and HexaTraction.
Waxless surfing by RSPro means more time in the water as you don't need to wax your board before every session, means no more wax in the car, no more mess, no more dirty boards, and a way more sustainable approach. A better world is possible.

You can surf waxless, and I don't mean this: which I can't recommend, by the way. I mean this: I'm talking about using the technology of the year we live in. We're well into the XXI century, we all carry a supercomputer in our pockets, but we wax boards. Really? Yes, ... you know ... the tradition, the smell ... Yes. I get it, the phone attached to the wall through the cord had its charm, but a dirty surboard is not cool, wax melted on your car is not cool, wax everywhere is a mess. In our quest to avoid wax altogether, first we launched the HexaTraction and later the eco Front Deck Grip. We can know offer...
We partnered with the friends at Hav Surfboards for their latest creation: The Camo Fish waxless Surfboard.
It's a retrofish surfboard, painted in Camouflage pattern and completely wax free thanks to RSPro's Front Deck Grip and HexaTraction

RSPro is on a quest to completely avoid wax in surfing. First with the HexaTraction, and now with the Front Deck Grip, which is made from cork. Cork is renewable, recyclable and energy efficient. It's the bark stripped from the cork tree. Cork trees are never cut down and live more than 200 years. Raw material is sourced from close suppliers and as with the rest of the RSPro products, production is made 100% in house in our Barcelona factory. Before expanding, let's remember what is sustainability: "avoidance of the depletion of natural resources in order to maintain an ecological balance" Sustainability is an attitude, and if we can change our surfboards and what we put on them, if we can use...
Target #1 during RSPro's Front Deck Grip development was to reach the most natural grip possible. RSPro is in a quest to avoid wax in surfing and we love the aesthetics of front foot pads and their functionality. At the same time we wanted to avoid bulky pads, which tend to be prone to be over-grippy and tend to lock-up your feet to much. We wanted a minimalistic approach. We wanted to feel the board. To feel its shape, to feel the flex (or the lack of it), so coupled to a natural material we decided to develop the thinnest front foot grip in possible. And we made it. RSPro's Front Deck Grip is a super-thin, 1mm, front foot grip....
