To celebrate 30 years of handboard manufacturing and 25 years as a company, POD head honcho Shane Vassallo has designed the new Hand Body Soul® Max 5 plywood hand board range: the most versatile bodysurfing experience possible. The new ultra-light Max 5 uses a 380mm/15 inch cottonwood hand board shape, maximising the boards planing surface area. This is in conjunction with an uprated concave and neutral buoyancy, providing maximum lift, speed and control when in the surf.
Remarkably, this hand surfer is the exact length and width as the classic solid polypropylene model, yet with a lower weight, creating a natural bond between user and wave face and allowing increased time in the surf with less exhaustion from paddling. What makes the Max 5 unique is it's ability to be rotated 180 degrees and ridden with either end facing forward. When the nose (long end) of the board is facing forward, it offers extra planing surface on long, full waves. Rotate it so the tail (short end) is facing forward and it presents as a manoeuvrable handplane that is perfect for steeper, barreling waves.
Whatever your goal in bodysurfing, the Max 5 can accommodate!
