This invention is applicable to the field of surfing. Existing traction pads for surfboards have a front pad and a kick tail. Turning the surfboard is easiest with the surfer's foot directly on top of the kick tail, but existing kick tails aren't designed to stand on and don't adequately support the surfer's foot. The present invention is a traction pad comprising a front pad and kick tail with a ramp designed to stand on, and angled so surfers can bend their back leg forward and have the bottom of their back foot flat on the ramp with minimal bending of their ankle required to achieve an optimum angle for surfing. The ramp is of sufficient size to adequately support the surfer's foot while executing a surfing maneuver, and optionally configured with a raised area for arch support for the surfer's back foot.
