What is a Snowboard Stomp pad for?

January 20th, 2009

This was a question that was sent it by emai, they wanted to know what a snowboard stomp pad was for. Well here is the answer.

A stomppad is basically made of rubber or foam and its attached on top of your board so that you can stand on it, when you dont have your backfoot inside your binding. Snowboards tend to get bloody slippery so its helpful to have this when your unbuckling your back foot, or when you are going to get on a ski lift or off one. You put your foot on the stomp pad

They are mainly made of rubber and so are your boots so they grip really nice.

So who is it good for? Well beginners mainly, it just lets them control the board when the back foot is out of the binding

How do you put it on the board? Very simply with strong glue on the bottom of it. You need to be sure to mark where its going to go on your board first. It usually comes right in front of where your back binding is. So between the snowboard bindings in the middle.
