Equipment.

I will give a brief overview of my opinions on what equipment you need to get yourself out in the water, these are all based on my opinions, I have been bdyboarding for about four years on and off so I should have some idea :-) I will have some photo's soon to come to give you a better idea of the products.

Leashes: O&E Bicep Leash, I have used this leash for 10 months now and I have only just broken it, They last a long time but the only disadvantage I have found with it is that it stretches HEAPS! but hey I have not found one leash that has not stretched on me.rrp $25

Flippers: Manta blade Or Churchill, I have had three pairs of blades and a pair of chruchill, the churchills are GREAT! they are comfortable and are easy on the feet, however the blades are good until the 'series II' I have the biggest sea olsars from them! I am currently wearing two pairs of sox with them but besides that they are good :-) rrp $60-70

Web Gloves: sh*t! Doen't need them.rrp $15-40

Plugs: O&E: Well these are all the same really.. rrp $2

Wax: Dr Zoggs Sex Wax: This is great wax which smellz GREAT! however I have heard of a wax now that does not go soft and melt, not sure if it's true though. rrp $2-10

Wet Suit: Hmmmm I prefer Billabong wetsuits however you really have to check them out for yourself! also their are three different type springy, long john, steamer, you really should check them out at your local surf shop for yourself. rrp $70-300

Board: I have stuck with the Manta Wingut for 2 years, i find them a great board however the later models seem to be worse, try and get an earlier series model if you can. The boards are fat! so be aware and also are not the fastest board avalible
