Protected at Every Contact Point - Fins for the Feet, Guard for the Body.
The POD PF1 Swim Fins and Long Sleeve Rash Guard pair the lightest fin in the PF Series with a rash guard built for extended time in the water. The fins keep movement light and forgiving on the ankles and knees. The rash guard protects the body - UPF 50+ Lycra across the torso and arms, with 3mm wear-resistant ripstop panels from elbow to wrist where bodyboarders and bodysurfers take the most contact with the board. Two products that address the same session from different angles.
PF1 POD Swim Fins
The PF1 is the lightest fin in the POD PF Series. Made from natural Malaysian buoyant rubber, it uses a streamlined rail that flows into the blade without vertical top rails. That structure gives the blade more natural flex, making each kick more forgiving and easier to sustain. The symmetrical blade and Splay Rails® support balanced movement and stable, controlled progress through the water.
The PF1 suits pool training, open-water swimming, and ocean use across bodysurfing, bodyboarding, and kneeboarding.

POD Long Sleeve Rash Guard - Wear-Resistant Elbow Pads
The POD Long Sleeve Rash Guard uses UPF 50+ high-performance Lycra with a heavyweight flatlock construction. A non-slip rubber waistband sits at the hip and a 10mm board short anchor loop keeps the rash guard in position through movement in the water. The nylon-neoprene pattern fabric sits comfortably against the skin across longer sessions.
The defining feature is the 3mm ripstop padded panels that extend from the elbow to the wrist. Those panels protect against abrasion from the board surface during prone bodyboarding and bodysurfing, reducing wear on the garment and reducing contact pressure on the forearms over time.
