PLATYSENSE GT 4.0 Footpads - NEW!
$249.95
The PlatySense™ - There's nothing else quite like it. Loved by riders all over the world for it's unique, organic shape and ergonomic feel, the Platy is available for XR and GT boards. It's the single best improvement you can make in ride quality. Ride farther with less foot fatigue, and get ultimate heal and toe control of your board!
The Platypus™ GT material is the same UHMW plastic of the Fangs™ GT bumper, and it's unbreakable, lightweight, and tough as nails. Combined, the two Platy GT footpads are nearly 10oz lighter than stock, and nearly half the weight of a single Kush Wide pad! That's serious weight savings!
Please note that from the time you order it will be around 1 week before your pad is shipped. Each set is custom made once ordered.
The PlatySense™ is a single-zone sensor. This makes mounting more reliable (since both zones appear to the Onewheel to be activated) and slow speed cutouts are avoided. When you're riding, the pad is like stock. To dismount, simply lift your heel from the front edge, or jump off, or do a stop stomp or skid stomp.
NEW FEATURE ALERT!
PlatySense™ orders can now be configured with an optional 1/2 second delay until motor cut. It's a simple, reliable solution that uses solid state electronics (no microprocessor that can lock up or fail) to give a very slight delay before the board is deactivated - this helps out immensely in everyday riding as well as trails (curb drops, bonks, rough terrain - these are all places where the delay feature shines!) It's similar to the delay feature on a Surestart Pro, but better in our view - because it's 100% reliable. This PlatySense-exclusive delay feature is available at no extra charge.
More experienced riders may remember that the original Platysense™ released last year innovated with a timed delay to motor cutoff, but that was done using a microprocessor, like the SureStart does now.)
Often imitated, but never duplicated, the Platypus™ is the original wide pad, which spawned a rash of copies. Nothing compares to the original!
Footpad shaping is an art like surfboard shaping, and the preference for each rider is very personal…the Platypus footpads are comprised of soft curves and organic flowing shapes that give a more ergonomic feel under foot. No sharp edges or corners are present. Instead, the Platypus comprises a smooth surface that feels great even when riding barefoot.
The feel under-foot is immediately noticeable, and the very small arch support (middle hump) is almost invisible (maybe 2mm higher than the surrounding areas), but it can certainly be felt by your foot or hand.
The PlatySense™ works with all aftermarket rails too! Anywhere the stock pad fits, the Platypus GT will also.
PlatySense™ kits are sold ONLY as a pair of footpads (front and rear).
The color options match the stock bumpers from Future Motion as well as the Fangs™ GT and BASH bumpers sold here on this site.
For grip tape options, we have PlatyGrip™ (medium grit, size #30) and PlatyGrip+™ (extreme grit, size #20).
Platypus™ with PlatySense™ units are hand-made once ordered and are available only in limited quantities. Once your order is in, you will be placed in the queue for production. We can only make a certain amount per day, and will try to fill orders as fast as possible.
The PlatySense™ system is non-returnable because it is a made-on-demand custom item of your specific color choice and grip tape. Free exchanges or repairs will be made for any verified defective units.
