The Handboard Holds the Line. The Fins Drive You There.
The POD Original Classic Handboard and PF2 Swim Fins work differently in the water and that is exactly why they pair well. The handboard manages lift, direction, and hold through the wave. The PF2 fins provide the drive to get there - vertical rails that hold position on the wave face and prevent the legs from sliding down. Together they cover the two contact points that matter most in bodysurfing.
POD Original Classic Handboard
The Original Classic is moulded from solid recyclable polypropylene with mineral-based pearl pigments that catch the light like fish scales. Lightweight, durable, and neutrally buoyant - it sits naturally in the water without pulling the arm down or riding too high.
The concave bottom and integrated keel fin work with water flow to support lift and directional hold through the wave. The hand sits naturally above the pivot point, and the double-padded neoprene strap with EVA palm deck pad keeps the connection secure and comfortable across longer sessions.

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. Those rails improve wave hold, keep the legs from sliding down the wave face, and give the kick a firm, directed response through moving water. A sole ramp-up reduces unnecessary toe movement and improves comfort under load.
The symmetric Chisel Blade® and symmetric foot pocket distribute load evenly across both sides of the fin - a genuine choice for bodysurfers who want a predictable, stable response.

No room for boards in the car. Fins and a POD is the answer
After a Mountain Bike trip to the Sunshine coast with some mates, we went for a swim after a ride. Cars full of bikes so no boards. A couple of them pull out these little bags with Pods and Fins. They’ve had them for years, always have them in the back of the car. The waves they were able to get out on with just a POD blew my mind. So this Xmas my teenage boys and I joined the POD world. I don’t have to put three boards on the roof to go to the coast. The design of these things is awesome, curved just right. The business owner helped us with fit and choice. Could not say enough good things here. Well designed product backed by a great company!!
