When
Tom Morey invented the bodyboard
in 1971, his design was
meant to be used without
fins on the bottom of the
board. The rail design of
the bodyboard is meant to
work in unison with swimfins
on your feet to help you
hold an edge. If you find
yourself sliding out, you
need to re-position yourself
further on the rail and
tail of your board and use
your inside leg with swimfin
trailing to hold your edge.
If you still decide you
want to have fins on the
board, we carry them along
with other
similar products, but
keep in mind they will severely
inhibit your ability to
do spinning maneuvers and
will slow you down a little.
On the plus side, if sliding
out is a problem you just
can't overcome, they will
help in that respect.
