Duo POD Handboards - EGO 225mm 9inch Bodysurfing Handplanes

EGO 225mm 9inch Pair | Double the Power, Double the Control Dynamic Bodysurfing Experience Dual-Hand Dominance: 

Take your bodysurfing to the next level with the Duo POD Handboards set. This isn't just two of our EGO 225mm (9-inch) handboards; it's a synergistic system designed to unlock unprecedented control and power in the surf. Championed by 90s bodysurfing pioneer Harry "H2O" Saderis, riding with a pair of EGOs dramatically enhances your capabilities, doubles your swimming stroke efficiency, and amplifies your lifting force and speed (70 kg/154.324 lb per handboard). Experience a profound enhancement in balance, precision, and dynamic wave riding.

Engineered for Unrivalled Body Surfing Performance: 

The compact and agile design of each EGO handplane, with its 22 cm × 20 cm hydrodynamic planing surface, makes it ideal for use with both hands. This configuration allows for rapid, independent manoeuvring of each hand, opening up new lines and creative expressions on the wave face. The combined lift propels you faster, while the dual control points enable tighter turns and a more balanced attack on the barrel. This set is for the bodysurfer ready to push boundaries and redefine their connection to the ocean.

Artisanal Quality, Amplified: 

Each EGO in your Duo set embodies the renowned POD craftsmanship. Hand-built from solid Cedar and Walnut, every board features a robust walnut "stringer" for strength, flanked by lighter cedar "wings" for optimal performance. This meticulous construction, combined with CAD design, precision CNC machining, laser engraving, and hand-finishing, ensures that your Duo set is not only functional but a pair of truly unique works of art. The natural wood grain variations and contrasting colours make each Duo set distinctly yours.

Shared Superiority: POD Comfort and Control, Ensuring Your Confidence in Every Wave:

Even when doubling your power, comfort remains paramount. Each EGO features our world-first ergonomic palm support, a convex deck that perfectly cradles your hand, alleviating muscle stress and ensuring a secure, natural grip. The superior strap system, featuring custom 50mm/2-inch retainers and wide 65mm/2.5-inch double-padded neoprene straps, ensures a snug fit without irritation. Coupled with the signature deep 16 mm concave bottom and keel fin on each board, you'll experience optimal lift, speed, and precision control with virtually zero splash-back.
