Light Flex. Streamlined Savers. Start Here with the WOW.
The POD WOW 13" Handboard, PF1 Swim Fins, Neoprene Fin Socks, and Deluxe Fin Savers pair the polyurethane WOW handboard with the lightest fin in the PF Series and a streamlined ankle retention system. The WOW 13" provides lift and directional hold through the wave. The PF1's forgiving flex reduces joint load across longer sessions, making it the most accessible fin choice in the range. The fin socks refine the fit inside the foot pocket. The Deluxe Fin Savers secure the connection at the ankle with a slim buckle-adjustable strap. Four products, four specific jobs.
POD WOW 13" Bodysurfing Handboard
The WOW 13" is a 330mm polyurethane handboard with a weight, density, and rigidity profile tuned for lightweight durability and flex rebound. The 18mm concave base with integrated mono-keel fin channels water flow to support lift and directional hold through the wave. The convex palm hold deck supports a natural hand position and reduces strain across longer sessions.
The polyurethane construction is crack-resistant and suited to regular surf use across a wide range of conditions without the maintenance requirements of a timber board.

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. Drainage channels allow quick release of water and sand from the foot pocket.
The PF1 suits pool training, open-water swimming, and ocean use across bodysurfing, bodyboarding, and kneeboarding. For beginners, younger riders, and fitness swimmers, the combination of forgiving flex and low weight makes movement easier to maintain and control.

POD Neoprene Fin Socks
The POD 3mm Neoprene Fin Socks use a registered stitch-free inner arch construction. The inner arch is left smooth rather than stitched, removing the most common source of discomfort associated with standard fin socks. The sock naturally hugs the medial arch of the foot without irritation. Suits feet that sit on the lower end of the fin pocket range, or where added warmth and protection in cooler water is needed.

POD Deluxe Fin Savers
The POD Deluxe Fin Savers use a slim-line buckle-adjustable strap system with 6mm webbing that loops around any swim fin strap and sits flat against the ankle. The 4mm neoprene padding reduces pressure and friction without adding bulk between the foot and the fin. They suit ocean use in surf, shore break, and moving water where fin retention matters.
