In my 30 years of water activity including all types of surfing,
swimming and diving Wave
Blades are the one greatest tool I've ever seen to enhance the
pleasure of body surfing
and swimming. For the last 5 years Wave Blades have enabled me
to take my body
surfing to a much higher level than ever envisioned. The added
planing surface plus
hydrodynamic shape allows more speed and control than I ever thought
possible.
Stop for a moment and look closely at the Wave Blades. You'll
see a finely tuned tool
not a toy that is in perspective a miniature surfboard on each
hand. So you’ll be riding
two small surfboards. This will enable you to do many things
not only better but that
you've never been able to do. Lets examine just a couple of these.
A. More Speed: You’ll be able to push down with one or both of
them depending on
where you are in the wave, to raise your chest out of the water.
In the normal
bodysurfing position you are riding on your chest and stomach
but since your head is up
looking where you're going your back is at least partially arched
and your chest is pushing a lot of water and thus slowing you down!
Think of when you normally obtain thc moat speed: its when the wave is
steepest and your chest IS OUT OF THE WATER!.
.When you get your chest out of the water thus reducing drag you gain
speed. With
more speed you are able to do maneuvers like bottom turns, off
the lips, cut backs and
actually make it out of deeps tubes. With Wave Blades and experience
you will be able
to consistently do all of these with a high degree of confidence.
B. Edge Control: With added speed you'll need some method of controlling
this added speed. How do surfboards deal with this issue? They have edges
and fins. Wave Blades have both! As you ride with the Wave Blades engaged
in the wave face you'll be able to steer and adjust your track by rotating
your hand(s), Also in previously uncontrollably steep faces,
the edge and .V' in the Wave Blades can control even free falls where your
body isn't even in the water but the Wave Blades acting as a surfboard
can and will give you the control necessary to pull off unbelievable late
drops. By using your trailing Wave Blade and engaging it back by your outside
hip you achieve even more edge control and stability. This has been
a revelation in maintaining position stability inside of hollow tubular
waves.
More speed. More control, creating more confidence & skill allowing
more fun...My
advice, BUY THEM, THEY'RE GREAT!!!
Wave Blades are a tool for developing your skill and having more
fun and enjoyment.
The best bodysurfers in the world have used and like them... They can’t
be wrong!!
For the recreational or serious water enthusiast, Wave Blades
will help you go places
you've only dreamed of.
I have 4 pair and can't wait to get in the water each weekend.
