I started skimming about a month ago and I don't have traction pads.
Do you think I should get some? Would it make it easier?

- Thanks

Wax should be fine for a while.

yea it probably would make it more comfortable and such. also if you plan to get a new board soon or have a woody then i would hold off on pads.
