Kneeboard - iPad Edition
Turbulence-Proof Tablet Integration
Keep your tablet stable over rough terrain, choppy seas, or turbulent skies. This kneeboard is comfortable even during long-term wear, especially with the adjustable and breathable stabilizers and an adjustable elastic strap. Fasten easily to your preferred leg with the G-hook that we laser-cut in-house from recycled 81mm mortar ammo cans.
Ultimately, securing a tablet during rough flying or driving conditions, making it easy to access, and keeping the design simple came down to finding the right non-slip and retention materials. The board is based on our best-selling Aviation Kneeboard design, but adds a non-slip surface out of the popular Cattongue Gription® material we found to work in our line of Battle Boards. The Gription® material along with flat-braided elastic corner straps hold any smaller-sized tablets such as the iPad mini from moving AT ALL, even when walking around. We tested the retention by violently shaking the kneeboard vertically with an iPad inserted. The straps were hitting us in the face but the iPad didn’t budge.
Try with our optional Clipboard Accessory Panel to layer your clipboard on top of the tablet or get the Navigation Bundle option to get one included with your board. The Navigation Bundle now comes with the new BOLT ACTION PEN!

- G-hooks designed and laser-cut in our workshop from 81mm mortar ammo cans used by Army and Marine Corps infantrymen. These ammo cans were ethically sourced and raised caringly by non-GMO, free-range country boys who liberated them from the diesel-fumed confines of a random assault vehicle.

Gription® Non-slip Material Highlights
- Non-abrasive, meaning that it won’t ruin any surface you put it on or leave behind any gummy, sticky goo or residue.
- Waterproof, so you can apply it to surfaces that may get wet including your boat, bathtub, sink, and more.
- Made with HDPE plastic, a soft & lightweight, flexible, super-strong, impact-resistant high-density polyethylene plastic whose grip is superior to rubber & latex.
- Eco-friendly; unlike most other plastics & adhesive materials, HDPE is recyclable & doesn’t end up in landfills.
- Allergy-and-irritant-free; another advantage of HDPE is that CatTongue Grips won't irritate your skin or your hands when you touch it; and, unlike latex (which you’ll find in every rubber grip), it is 100% allergy-free.
