DEFLOW 5 PIECE TRACTION | CHERRY FIVE-PIECE SURF GRIP

Different is beautiful: the five-piece surf grip from the Premium Collection in the color that ignites every session before you even hit the water

Cherry is energy. It’s that moment before paddling into a new line when everything feels sharp and alive. For Deflow, Cherry isn't just a red: it's focused speed, pure confidence, drive. The 5 Piece Traction Cherry combines the pad with the highest number of pieces in the Premium range with that red that stands out without needing to ask. For the surfer who brings heat to cold mornings and fire to flat days, who demands maximum performance and sees no contradiction between technique and style.

WHY THIS GRIP MAKES THE DIFFERENCE

The 5 Piece Cherry is the sum of the most complete construction in the range with the most energetic colorway in the Color Collection. Five technical reasons to choose it:

• Five pieces for perfect coverage and fit — Five independent pieces with the freedom to be separated at every point. The most precise level of adjustment in the entire Deflow range, to cover the tail with millimeter precision and without positioning compromises.
• 5 mm central arch: the support that doesn't get in the way — The 5 mm arch firmly guides the back foot without the aggressiveness of higher arches. Ideal for the surfer who wants that reference point under their foot without feeling like the pad is dictating their stance.
• Greater coverage than the 2 Piece for more stability — The 32 × 32.9 cm dimensions make the 5 Piece the pad with the most surface area in the entire multi-piece range. For demanding wave conditions and wide tails where more coverage means more confidence.
• Line pattern activated under pressure — Smooth surface as a rule, line pattern as an exception where the foot exerts the most load. Extra precise grip during moments of highest intensity, without interfering with the rest.
• Cherry: the color that doesn't lie — "Fast, secure, pure," in Deflow's words. The Cherry on your board's tail communicates exactly what the 5 Piece delivers in the water: focused energy, no-compromise performance.

ADVICE FROM OUR EXPERTS

The Cherry 5 Piece is the most visual combination in the Deflow five-piece catalog. That energetic and focused red stands out especially on white boards, where the contrast is maximum and clean, but also on boards with turquoise or navy blue resins, where the complementary color creates a combination that can be seen from far away in the lineup. If you are going to invest in the most complete pad in the Premium range, Cherry is the colorway that best reflects what the 5 Piece is: energy, precision, and performance without half-measures.

DEFLOW GUARANTEE — «OUR LOVE FOR THE SEA BROUGHT US HERE»

Deflow was born on the beach of Zarautz at the hands of a group of surf enthusiasts with a clear obsession: to create efficient, beautiful, and honest accessories and fins. What started as a community of riders from the Basque Country has become a benchmark brand in the European market, recognized for its technical rigor and an aesthetic that connects surfing with the culture of color and design.

The Deflow Cherry Collection is the focused energy of the Color Collection: not the red that screams, but the red that concentrates. "Cherry isn't loud. It's focused. It's drive." The 5 Piece Cherry on your board's tail is the clearest message you can send before paddling out: you know what you're doing, you know what you want, and you don't need to explain it.

All Deflow products are manufactured with top-quality materials, selected to withstand the most demanding conditions of saltwater, sun, and continuous use. The 3M adhesive guarantees permanent and secure attachment throughout the pad's entire lifespan.

USAGE AND CARE

• Surface preparation — Thoroughly clean and dry the tail of the board. Remove any wax residue with a specific remover and let it dry for at least 30 minutes.
• Positioning — Place the five pieces dry before applying. Distribute the pieces so that the tail coverage is complete and symmetrical. The kick should be aligned with the edge of the tail.
• Application — Peel the paper off the 3M adhesive piece by piece, starting with the center piece with the arch. Press firmly from the center toward the edges without leaving air bubbles. Repeat with the side pieces in order.
• Curing time — Wait a minimum of 24 hours before your first session to ensure maximum adhesion.
• Care and maintenance — Rinse with fresh water after each session. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sun. Do not use harsh solvents for cleaning.
