Bodysurfing Gear - Designed for Real Ocean Conditions
Bodysurfing is wave riding in its purest form. With no board beneath you, performance comes from body position, timing, and the equipment that helps you enter waves cleanly and hold your line. POD Ware bodysurfing gear is designed by bodysurfers, refined through real ocean conditions, and built to deliver speed, control, and confidence in the water.
Whether you are bodysurfing beach breaks, slabs, or everyday conditions, POD Ware equipment supports natural movement while maximising lift, drive, and efficiency.
Essential Bodysurfing Equipment
While bodysurfing requires minimal gear, the right equipment dramatically improves wave entry, speed, and control. POD Ware focuses on purpose-built bodysurfing equipment that performs when conditions matter.
Bodysurfing Swim Fins
Swim fins are the foundation of effective bodysurfing. POD Ware bodysurfing fins are engineered to provide powerful thrust, controlled acceleration, and long-session comfort.
- Natural Malaysian rubber construction for durability and flexibility
- Hydrodynamic blade design for efficient propulsion
- Comfort-focused foot pockets to reduce fatigue and pressure points
These fins support faster wave entry, better positioning, and sustained speed through critical sections.
Bodysurfing Handboards and Handplanes
POD Ware handboards and handplanes are designed to increase lift and control while maintaining a natural feel in the water. Used correctly, they allow bodysurfers to hold higher lines, reduce drag, and maintain speed.
- Signature ergonomic shapes for controlled handling
- Lightweight, buoyant construction
- Added lift for smoother wave engagement
Handplanes are ideal for bodysurfers looking to enhance glide and precision without restricting movement.

Real Feedback from Bodysurfers
- Peter Bradbury - East Coast: Just got back from our local swell magnet, Woonona Beach. Offshore nor-wester, low tide, three foot and barrelling. The POD F2 fins are, without doubt, certifiably awesome. Powered along the wave face, made crumbling sections with ease, and got pitted constantly.
- Joseph Badaoui - NSW: Fantastic service. High-quality products. I bought a POD handboard, then the POD fins. Unbelievable on the wave. Very happy.
- Andrew Neil Masterson - Sutherland Shire: These are my fourth pair of POD fins. Over the years, I’ve tried many brands, but nothing compares. Powerful, comfortable, and exceptionally well designed.
