Small Board, Soft Flex - EGO Handboard and PF3 Fins
The POD EGO Cedar Walnut Handboard and PF3 Evolution Swim Fins pair the smallest wood handboard in the Hand Body Soul® range with the most flexible fin in the PF Series. At 225mm, the EGO keeps your hand's contact with the wave small and direct, and it fits smaller hands well. The PF3's asymmetric blade centres the load across your foot and follows each change in your movement, so both ends of your body stay tuned to the wave.
EGO Cedar Walnut Handboard - Hand Body Soul®
The EGO is the smallest handboard in the Hand Body Soul® range at 225mm (9 inches). The cedar and walnut construction delivers a 16mm concave bottom with integrated keel fin. The convex deck supports a natural hand position in the palm with ergonomic palm hold and support. The compact size suits technical surf, steeper waves, and riders with smaller hands.

PF3 Evolution POD Swim Fins
A foot isn't symmetrical, so neither is the PF3. Both the pocket and the blade take their shape from the foot, not from a centre line drawn down the fin.
Slip your foot into the pocket, and it follows your natural contour, gripping evenly all the way around. Nothing moves when you put your weight through it. The blade carries that same logic further. Its asymmetric outline keeps the load under the middle of your foot rather than out at the toe edge, and because it's the longest and softest blade in the PF Series, it curves smoothly with each stroke of your leg.
The rails are where the PF3 and PF2 agree. On both fins, they stand vertical right to the blade edge, grip the face and stop your legs from slipping down the wave.
For the bodysurfer who reads a wave early and adjusts constantly, that close fit matters. The PF3 carries each small shift in your legs into the water on days when timing and position leave you with almost nothing to spare.
