Start Here - WOW 13", PF1 and Deluxe Fin Savers
The POD WOW 13" Handboard, PF1 Swim Fins, Neoprene Fin Socks and Deluxe Fin Savers pair the polyurethane WOW handboard with the lightest fin in the PF Series and a streamlined way to keep your fins on. The WOW 13" adds to the lift from your hand and holds your direction through the wave. The PF1's forgiving flex keeps each kick easy on the legs, even late in a long session. The fin socks close up the fit inside the pocket, and the Deluxe Fin Savers hold each fin at the ankle with a slim strap you set with a buckle.
POD WOW 13" Bodysurfing Handboard
While you're learning, the WOW 13" will be dropped on the sand, knocked against your fins and tumbled through the whitewater. It handles all of that. The 330mm polyurethane body is light and resilient, with a slight flex that bounces back. On the wave, the 18mm concave and mono-keel fin underneath direct the water along the board, adding to the lift your hand already finds and helping it run true across the face.

PF1 POD Swim Fins
The lightest in the PF Series, the PF1 is an easy place to start. Its rail sweeps smoothly into the blade with no vertical top rails, so the blade flexes freely, and your kick stays comfortable wave after wave. The natural Malaysian rubber floats too, so a fin that comes off in the shallows won't sink out of sight.

POD Neoprene Fin Socks
New fins can take a few sessions to feel right, and a sock helps in the meantime. The POD 3mm Neoprene Fin Socks cushion your foot inside the pocket, and their registered stitch-free inner arch means there's no seam along the arch, where standard fin socks tend to rub.

POD Deluxe Fin Savers
Lose a fin while you're still learning, and you'll spend more time chasing it than riding waves. The POD Deluxe Fin Savers loop their slim 6mm webbing around any swim fin strap and sit flat against your ankle. A buckle lets you set the fit, and the fin stays with you.
