Bodyboards for children
Looking for an active hobby for your child? Bodyboarding is similar to surfing, but lying on a short, wide board, usually in the surf or an indoor surf pool.
Bodyboarding
During bodyboarding, your child lies on their stomach on the board. The principle is the same as surfing the waves, only with bodyboarding you stay down. Once mastered, your child can also teach themselves some tricks.
What does a bodyboard look like?
A bodyboard for kids is a short, wide board, often with an ankle or wrist strap so that the board does not get lost easily. It is made of hydrodynamic foam, which makes it float well. The top is soft but offers enough grip to stay on it, the bottom is smooth so that your child glides smoothly over the waves.
Tip
Do you want to know if the bodyboard is the right length? Stand the board upright: if it comes approximately to your child's navel, then you have the right size.
