Bodyboard swimfins

Fins are essential for bodyboarders. They allow you to run to catch waves and to walk long distances to reach them. Their rigidity is one of the main things to look at. Soft swimfins will be more comfortable but less efficient than rigid ones. If you are unsure about which ones to choose, here is a guide about how to choose your bodyboard swimfins. Don´t forget fin leashes if you don´t want to loose them in a big wipeout.
