Stomp pad
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A stomp pad is an optional footrest between the two bindings of a snowboard. Its only purpose is to allow the rider to better control the board with only one boot strapped in, such as when manoeuvering onto a chair lift or riding a ski tow. Whereas the upper surface of the board is smooth, the stomp pad has a textured pattern which provides grip to the underside of the boot.
For a regular rider (whose stance has the left foot leading), the stomp pad is placed on the inside of the right foot. The opposite applies for a goofy rider.
