    Understanding this bodyboard's technology

    PE Bodyboard information at Inverted Bodyboarding
    2.4lb Polyethylene PE
    Mid-heavy-weight extruded foam compressed at 2.4lb offering a sturdy intermediate bodyboard. This foam is not waterproof and is ideal in cold climates.
    EXT Stringer Performance at Inverted Bodyboarding
    EXT Stringer
    Pultruded plastic and carbon composite rod offering rigidity and durability.
    55 45 Rail information at Inverted Bodyboarding
    55/45 Rails
    This rail setup leaves less of your rail in the water and offers the rider less contact with the water and therefore better drive and speed throughout all conditions.
    Graduated Channels at Inverted Bodyboarding
    Graduated
    Graduated channels are a slow rise channel which redirect waterflow to create lift and allow the rider a better grip on the wave. 
    HDPE Plastic Slick Bodyboards at Inverted Bodyboarding
    HDPE
    HDPE is a high density plastic. This plastic is hard wearing and very stiff. Whilst it will perform as per the norm, it is more prone to creasing when under heavy stress as for its high density properties.
    Wave core PE deck skin on a bodyboard
    Wavecushion 8lb NXLPE(Indo)Decking
    Wavecushion decking is a 8lb decking foam. Much like the PE core, the PE decking is soft and flexible. Unlike the PE core, PE decking is used on all top end boards as for the flex and softness which allows riders to create a foam memory. Despite being soft and flexible PE is still extraordinarily durable.
    Clipped Crescent Tail Information at Inverted Bodyboarding
    Clipped Crescent Tail
    The clipped crescent tail is the most popular crescent tail option.  This tail will perform when driving, turning, carving and releasing. Clipping the tail allows the rider to maximise their drive and maintain control through the outer concaves and clipped areas.
    Contour Information at Inverted Bodyboarding
    Contours
    The contours are the slight indents in the deck of a bodyboard. Their job is to help you lock in to the board as best as possible.
    Nose bulb information at Inverted bodyboarding
    Nose Bulbs
    Nose bulbs are a slightly raised area of foam on the nose of the board which create a comfortable spot to grip the nose.
    CNC Shaping information at Inverted Bodyboarding
    CNC Shaping
    Short for“computernumerical control”, CNC machines allow shapers to cut boards perfectly to the mm. CNC machines offer the sharpest possible finish to bodyboard manufacturing.

    The Broady bodyboard factory started in New Zealand in the 80’s but relocated to Indonesia in the early 2000’s.
