Fits in the Palm. Holds in the Wave. Secured at the Foot.
The POD EGO Cedar Walnut Handboard, PF2 Swim Fins, and Fin Savers with Heel Protectors pair the smallest wood handboard in the Hand Body Soul® range with the most structured fin in the PF Series and a complete ankle retention system. The EGO at 225mm suits technical surf, smaller hands, and riders who prefer a compact, agile contact point. The PF2's vertical rails keep the legs stable on the wave face. The fin savers and heel protectors secure that connection at the ankle and prevent loss in turbulent water. Four products, four specific jobs.
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.

PF2 POD Swim Fins
The PF2 is the most structured fin in the POD PF Series. Made from natural Malaysian buoyant rubber, it carries vertical rails that extend to the blade edge, improving wave hold and keeping the legs from sliding down the wave face. The sole ramp-up reduces unnecessary toe movement and improves comfort under load. The symmetric Chisel Blade® and Splay Rails® distribute load evenly and support controlled, directed movement through the water.
The PF2 suits swimming, open-water training, bodysurfing, bodyboarding, kneeboarding, lifesaving, and ocean photography across a wide range of conditions.

POD Fin Savers and Heel Protectors
The POD Swim Fin Savers and Heel Protectors use a single streamlined ONE-Strap webbing connection between the ankle and the rubber fin strap. That single strap reduces the bulk and drag associated with wider webbing systems. Soft neoprene heel pads wrap around the fin strap to prevent chafing, stabilise the heel, and improve retention in surf, shore break, and moving water.
- ONE-Strap webbing connection - single strap sits flat between ankle and rubber fin strap
- Reduces bulk and drag at the ankle
- Neoprene heel pads prevent chafing and stabilise the heel
- No plastic hardware at connection points
- POD Registered Design
