Bodyboards
Bodyboard
Bodyboarding is a form of surfing with a wide, but short board. Unlike surfing, during bodyboarding you lie on your stomach on the board. Bodyboarding is done on the high waves in the sea, so it is very important that you can swim well in the sea! You don't have to travel all the way to Hawaii to go bodyboarding, the waves on the Dutch coast are strong enough to provide hours of fun!
What is a bodyboard?
A bodyboard is a short, but wide board. The inside of the bodyboard is made of hydrodynamic foam, giving the board good buoyancy and preventing it from breaking in no time. The bottom of the board is made of a smooth material, allowing you to gain a lot of speed on the waves! On the other hand, the top of the board should not be smooth. The bottom is often made of a soft and tough material, making it both comfortable and providing enough grip to stay on.
