A new realm for body surfing - WaveBlades.
A simple concept and complex design opened up waves previously unmakeable by me. WaveBlades have
significantly changed my attitude about what constitutes bodysurfable waves. What fins have done for big
wave surfing, WaveBlades have done for bodysurfing - an absolutely new realm!!
Like a kid with a new toy, eash session with my WaveBlades opens up different and exciting parts of the
wave that I previously ignored. Deeper tubes and more radical spinners, on bigger waves are quickly
becoming standards for the growing gang of WaveBladers.
Body surfing is one of the loves of my life and now this love has been taken to a higher level because of
WaveBlades.
