RYD Drone Ranger traction pad, single flat front pad, Aero range
FRONT PAD ONLY
Drone Ranger
Different by design. The Drone Ranger is a single flat front pad — not a tail pad set. It is designed to be used on the front foot of a shortboard or fish for extra grip and control up front.

3mm Diamond Dot grip, flush flat profile, no arch or raised sections — just clean, reliable traction right where you need it on the nose.
