Back in 2006, east coast bodyboarder and mad scientist Bruce Blumenfeld decided to “break the mold” (pardon the pun) and make an attempt to reinvent the bodyboarding wheel so to speak. Ā Bruce experimented with different materials, shapes, and contours and eventually came up with something completely different.
The Wave Skater is unlike anything else on the market. Ā Incorporating two fiberglass stringers in the Wave Skater Pro models, these boards are compression-molded, one-piece construction, meaning no separate deck, rail and bottom skins heat-laminated to the core, which means no delamination issues. Ā These boards are as close to bullet-proof as a bodyboard can be.
The EVA/PE combo foam provides just the right amount of flex and maintains its integrity for years. Ā Leave your Wave Skater in the sun while you’re at the beach? Ā No problem! Ā It can take way more abuse than a standard bodyboard.
Let’s talk performance! Ā Check the video of Ben Graeff (@bengravyy) going bonkers on his Wave Skater.
The boards feature a unique dual tapered pontoon setup on the bottom for max stability and a lower wide point for more planing speed on the back end of the board. The Wave Skater is the board you might have in your garage for years to come, and they makeĀ a bodyboard bagĀ
that will also fit their Monstrosa model, a board that’sĀ made with more traditional bodyboarding materials, but still maintains the sleek profile and the signature pontoons while offering a thicker core (over 3″ thick) for max buoyancy for heavier riders or those that want to stand up surf on their bodyboard.
