FIN LEASH
These fins float, but the force of the waves and the current can knock them off your feet! To avoid losing your equipment and for your peace of mind, we strongly recommend that you buy a fin leash. This ensures they stay attached to your ankle, no matter how powerful the wave.
Safety and behaviour rules for the water
Bodyboarding is a fantastic sport, but one that requires everyone to respect certain basic rules to ensure the safety and enjoyment of all.
1- Ask about and observe the characteristics of the spot: current, rocks, tidal influence, size of the waves and number of people in the water, etc.
2- Don’t overestimate your level, and go for an easier spot if your skills don’t match up to the conditions.
3- Use suitable equipment: Leash, fins, board in good condition, a suitable neoprene diving suit
Hold in the wave.
To ride down the line of the wave on a bodyboard and not swerve off to the side, you can use fins to help you. The side ribs will help you to stick to the face of the wave better and maintain a steady course.
An asymmetrical fin can accentuate this phenomenon and will require the bodyboarder to get used to it, because as the fin thrust is not symmetrical, it leads to additional twisting of the knees. For advanced users only.
