Directions for use
During the gliding phase, this bodyboard is best used lying down, with your hands under or on the handles. This will give you a good grip on the board. It's important to wear a long-sleeved anti-UV top or a neoprene wetsuit to avoid chafing on the stomach and arms.
How to catch a wave with this product
Conçu pour attraper et glisser sur les mousses du bord de mer, ce produit s'utilise là où l'enfant ou l'adulte ont pieds, avec de l'eau sous la taille. Au passage d'une petite mousse (<50cm) poussez sur vos pieds en direction de la plage et mettez vous à plat ventre sur le bodyboard, mains sous ou sur les poignées, bras pliés et jambes tendues en arrière. L'utilisation de palmes n'est pas nécessaire.
EPP (expanded polypropylene) is the material that makes up this bodyboard, but what is it?
We changed the material, and reduced the environmental impact by 29%. This new material is EPP (expanded polypropylene)
EPP is made up of 95% air and 5% material. These polypropylene beads are inflated in a mold up to 20 times their size, in contact with steam, to create the foam that makes up the bodyboard.
What's more, this process doesn't require the use of glue.
additional information quality approach
By following a rigorous methodology based on laboratory tests and/or field trials with users, we compare products of the same type that meet the same use. By identifying weak points, we have improved the design of this product and reinforced its quality. This model is 39% more resistant to deformation than the previous bodyatu model.

How to choose your bodyboard size?
Bodyboard size has a direct influence on stability and maneuverability. It must be adapted to the user's size. This bodyboard is designed for children (aged 4 and over) and adults weighing between 15 and 85 kg.
A bodyboard that's too small won't float enough, so you'll miss out on waves. A bodyboard that's too big will be difficult to handle.
For use in supervised swimming areas only.
