For a 1st wave-riding experience (bodyboard with grips).\n- Beginner: Gentle turns in waves up to 1m, propulsion with fins. A must for learning to bodyboard.\n- Intermediate: Waves up to 1.50 m, more speed and the beginning of tricks (360°, El Rollo, etc.).\n- Advanced: All types of waves, doing tricks, even aerial ones (ARS, tube, 360°, etc.).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eDid you know? The use of fins lets you catch 2 to 3 times more waves!\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen the water is higher than your belly button, it is very complicated to catch waves without fins. You can no longer push off with your feet, and paddling with your arms is often not enough.\nWe have observed that with fins, you will catch 2 to 3 times more waves and have more fun!\nFins allow you to move faster and considerably increase propulsion when taking take-off.\nFins: Do not forget!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSafety and behaviour rules for the water - Part 2.\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e4- Respect the rules of right of way on the waves: Right of way goes to the person closest to the peak.\n5- Avoid the breaking wave area when moving back up to the peak to avoid cutting another boarder off.\n6- Use fins if the water is above your hips.\n7- If you’re not using fins, it’s recommended you keep to a supervised area. Lifeguards can tell you where these are.\n8- Bodyboard in a group.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSize guide\/How to choose the right bodyboard size?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe size of the bodyboard directly influences its stability and ease of handling.
