The only place i would think you could get them is the kampus website http://www.kampuswakesk8.com/ but i don't think they have them in stock. I just ordered a K39 and i'm probably going to make my own, i mean hell, if you can make your own wakeskate, why not some kicktails? As for what type of foam they use, i don't know. But the shape they have shown on the website is a little weird, like Kento said, they are just a straight wedge. i am going to make mine a bit taller and longer, and they will have a gradual concave to them. Only question i still have is how to apply them? I mean do you just.. like... i don't know but i might buy either griptape, or Kampus's Rubberized grip so i might just use some waterproof glue stuff to stick them on the bare deck, and then put the grip over it. I hope i helped, and if anyone could tell me how to apply those things, that would be appreciated.
