WOO 300mm 12inch Cedar Walnut POD® Handboards 100% Custom Built for Bodysurfing

Woo Hoo there’s nothing quite like our beautifully crafted and shaped 300mm/12inch solid Cedar and Walnut Hand Body Soul® POD bodysurfing handboards!

The new POD handboard range, we now offer all three-size body surfing hand boards in two wood species joined together walnut centre and cedar sides.

Also, for the very first time, Shane has designed ergonomic palm hold and support on the handboard deck surface, between the new purposely custom-built 50mm/2inch hand strap retainer inserts to suit 50mm/2inch webbing strap.

Not like other bodysurfing handplanes use of a small 25mm/1inch surfboard plug and a thin handboard strap causing discomfort over the hand.

The palm support relieves the arm muscles from stress, typically from handplanes with flat decks and most of all holds your hand in place, prevents your hand from slipping out from under the double padded neoprene strap.

Three new body surfing POD board sizes to choose from

  • "EGO" = Length 255mm/9inch x Width 200mm/7.87inches x D 41mm/1.61inches
  • "WOO" = Length 300mm/12inch x Width 210mm/8.25inches x D 43mm/1.69inches
  • "FLO" = Length 375mm/15inch x Width 218mm/8.25inches x D 45mm/1.77inches

With two new wood species cedar and walnut, three bodysurfing POD handboard sizes are a "body surfing game-changer" CAD computer-aided design, precision CNC machining, laser engravings, hand-finished and hand-assembled.

Cedar and Walnut contrasting colours, natural wood grain variations, timber density and Sic Cut® shape make each handboard one-of-a-kind.

Without any doubt, the new Sustainable WOO Cedar and Walnut Neutral Buoyant POD handboard ensures improved performance in any surf condition, from beginners, casuals, to the elite dedicated bodysurfer looking for a brag-worthy unique product with outstanding performance, whilst offering natural swimming and paddling freedom, improved bodysurfing performance wave after wave, we highly recommend any of the Solid Wooden POD Handboards.

Protective Handboard Case and Hemp Drawstring Cover

Protect your bodysurfing POD handboard investment with a new environmentally friendly reusable packaging foam that can be repeatedly recycled, the environmental protection industry describes it as a never-recession material with so many advantages, including good impact resistance, moisture-proof and waterproof.

Therefore, with the proper care, your premium wood handboard will last years of quality bodysurfing, that you can then pass down from generation to generation.

Hemp Cover and Protective Case Features

  • Impact Resistance Protective Case
  • Reusable Packaging

All Timber POD handboards decks are Convex with Palm Support = Comfort in the palm of your hand

The bottom surface is Concave with a Keel Fin = Optimum Lift, Speed, and Control in the surf

    Better than any board I've ever used.

    Posted by Kevin Bowlin on 8th Jan 2024

    Received my Handboard yesterday and just wanted to report back after my first very successful session with the "Woo". I went out at my home break in Del Mar California. Surf report was 4ft - 5ft with a strong on-shore breeze. I shredded it out there with the "Woo" and was getting compliments left and right on the wave face speed I was generating. It outperformed by favorite go to board for those type of conditions and has moved to the top of the quiver after only one session. It was light, easy to swim with and held the line better than any board I've ever used. Thanks for a great product

    More Awesomeness

    Posted by Adam on 12th Nov 2022

    Shane is excellent, patronize his business. Communication throughout exceeded excellence. Trust and buy with confidence. International shipping from AUS was great; on Shane’s end, could not have been faster. The board itself is beautiful, Shane sent me picture options and let me pick the board. Unexpected and so good. Quality is through the roof. Comes with a hemp bag and precut foam that forms a soft but protective case. I bought the 300mm, and after having this in my hand and riding it, I will be buying another. The palm swell works and the keel and concave combine for solid control. If you are on the fence, jump off! Totally worth it. Cheers from CA, USA.

    A huge thank you

    Posted by Jason Timberlake on 8th Feb 2022

    Just wanted to touch base with you and say a massive thank you for your prompt postage and such an amazing handboard, it's exquisite, such a stunning board, in fact so nice that I'm gifting it to my partner who has her birthday tomorrow, but I just thought she'd love it, and she does, as I couldn't wait until tomorrow! Just brilliant, the product, the packaging and just overall presentation, what a fantastic product. So it's a huge thank you, keep the amazing work.

    Great for smaller waves

    Posted by Simon on 2nd Mar 2020

    I got the Flo for myself, since i've already for a few of the original wooden pods I was looking for something bigger for 4-6foot surf, but in smaller surf the Woo i got for my dad makes me jealous, it's superior for the 1-2 foot range and easier to swim with. I think there's one of these in my near future.

    Posted by David on 21st Feb 2020

    Excellent made handplane, so much attention to details, palm hold is so comfortable, nice wide hand strap, I have another handplane like a plaited/braid strap its why to thin and cuts into my hand. the pod strap is so comfortable, the board is really great to swim with and holds me well on the wave I never experienced before. Thanks Shane
