In 1976, Herbie created Astrodeck in his own lab\u2014the world-famous traction pad company. As the use of the pads became more well-received and technology advanced, so did the ability to create different contours and shapes.\u00a0\u201cI looked at it like the last part of my shaping job by adding kicks, arches and different surface patterns for ultimate grip and control, until the designs eventually evolved into the patented multi-grid lock high performance foot pad of today,\u201d explains Herbie.<\/p>\n<pre class=\"p1\">Read more about Herbie <a href=\"https:\/\/juicemagazine.com\/home\/herbie-fletcher-2\/\">here<\/a> in an interview by Steve Olson \r\nfor Juice Magazine and <a href=\"https:\/\/juicemagazine.com\/home\/herbie-fletcher\/\">here<\/a> in an interview by James O'Mahoney.<\/pre>\n<p class=\"p1\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-62333\" src=\"https:\/\/juicemagazine.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Astrodeck-Super-Natural-Tee.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"319\" height=\"447\" srcset=\"https:\/\/juicemagazine.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Astrodeck-Super-Natural-Tee.jpg 319w, https:\/\/juicemagazine.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Astrodeck-Super-Natural-Tee-214x300.jpg 214w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 319px) 100vw, 319px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Astrodeck started a revolution in performance surfing and continues to be the standard for surfboard traction.
