100 Kids' Technical 1st Price Bodyboard 6-12 years 35" + Leash - Blue

KIDS

2 Years

The size of the bodyboard directly influences its stability and ease of handling. It must be suited to the size of its user. As such, this bodyboard is designed for children weighing between 25 and 40kg, between 120cm and 145cm tall, and aged between 6 and 12 years. A bodyboard that is too small will not float enough so you will miss waves. A bodyboard that is too big will be difficult to handle. Refer to the size chart online or in store to help you choose.

- Novices: Up to the navel, no fins, small waves < 50 cm, propulsion by pushing your feet on the ground and riding the wave to the shore. For a first wave-riding experience (bodyboard with grips). - Beginner: Gentle turns in waves up to 1 m, propulsion with fins. A must for learning to bodyboard. - Intermediate: Waves up to 1.50 m, more speed and the beginning of tricks (360 °, El Rollo, etc.). - Advanced: All types of waves, command of tricks, even aerial: ARS, 360°, tube...

If this bodyboard is used in green or white waves over 50cm and/or by children over 40kg, it could become damaged: breakage, bending, etc. This bodyboard does not have a dense plastic slick on the bottom; it is not suitable for use where there are pebbles or shells on the shore, which could impair the glide surface. In this case, choose a bodyboard with a high-density plastic slick, like on the other bodyboards in the 100 range.

The nose of the bodyboard is preformed for optimal hand positioning. As you catch the wave, both hands are placed at the front. To go left, keep your left hand at the front (your hand, elbow and shoulder should be aligned, with your upper arm at 90° to your forearm) and move your right hand back to the middle of the board and grab the right rail. Position your left leg in line with the left rail to maintain your direction. Do the opposite to go right.

You should be lying flat on the bodyboard when catching waves. Be sure to wear a long-sleeved anti-UV top or a wetsuit to avoid chafing on your arms and torso. We recommend you apply wax to the top of your bodyboard - especially on the front hand position, on the sides, and under your torso - for the best grip (sold separately in the surfing aisle). Do this for each session.

This bodyboard can be used with or without fins. Without fins, the water level should no higher than your waist. In this case, propel yourself towards the beach by pushing off from the ground as the wave or foam passes (

Bodyboarding is a fantastic sport, but one that requires everyone to respect certain basic rules to preserve the safety and enjoyment of all. 1- Find out as much about the spot as you can: current, rocks, tides, the size of the waves and the crowds, etc. 2- Don’t overestimate your level, and go for an easier spot if your skills aren’t on par with the conditions. 3- Use suitable equipment: Leash, fins, board in good condition, a suitable neoprene wetsuit

4- Follow the wave priority rules: Priority is given to whoever is closest to where the wave is breaking. 5- Go around the surfing area as you paddle out to the break to avoid getting in another rider's way. 6- Use fins if the water level is higher than your hips. 7- If you are not using fins, it is recommended to stay in the safe swimming area, ask the lifeguards present at the spot. 8- Ride with friends.

When not in use, keep your bodyboard out of the sun or temperatures >30°C. Protect your board by using a cover, putting it under a parasol, in the shade, or under a light coloured towel to keep the heat away. Never leave it in a car in direct sunlight. Leaving your board exposed to too much heat can cause blisters or bubbles to form on it, or even cause warping.
