Understanding this bodyboard's technology

ProRide Bodyboard information at INverted Bodyboarding
ProRide
Mid-weight Kinetic PP with curved mesh T90 beams wedged into the board. This creates elongated bodyboard channels in order to enhance control, rigidity, projection, recoil and speed. This foam is 100% waterproof and ideal in warm climates.

Kinetic Bodyboard information at Inverted Bodyboarding
1.9lb Kinetic PP (Indonesia)
Lightweight fusion foam compressed at 1.9lb offering instant recoil, enhanced stiffness and compression strength. This foam is 100% waterproof and ideal in mild to warm temperatures.
CFT Stringer INformation at INverted Bodyboarding
Carbon Fibre/ CFT Stringer
Lightweight filament wound 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.
MiniQuad Concave
The X4 MiniQuad takes the key design factors of our groundbreaking full-length QuadConcave and shrinks it down, focusing on the back half of the board. Starting below the wide-point, the X4 essentially splits the hull in two, combining the glide and flow of a flat bottom with the drive and directional control of the QuadConcave.  The X4 MiniQuad is designed to excel in small to medium size surf and for quicker transitions closer to the pocket of the wave.

Surlyn plastic bodyboarding information at INverted
DuPont Surlyn Slick
Surlyn plastic is thin and durable making it the most popular top end slick. Surlyn plastic will bend and stretch before it creases or snaps. This is a must have for intermediate through to advanced riders.
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.
Q12 Q12 Backing
Higher density crosslinked PP foam backing layer delivers more resilient nose and tail seam fusion and increases board strength.
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.
Mesh information at Inverted Bodyboarding
Mesh
Mesh is a diamond shaped wire like plastic that runs under the slick of a bodyboard. Mesh creates a durable reinforcement between the bodyboards slick and the core making it stiffer, stronger and less likely to crease.
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 “computer numerical control”, CNC machines allow shapers to cut boards perfectly to the mm. CNC machines offer the sharpest possible finish to bodyboard manufacturing.
Indonesia bodyboard manufacturing information at Inverted Bodyboarding
Manufacturing Country: Indonesia/ Broady
The Broady bodyboard factory started in New Zealand in the 80’s but relocated to Indonesia in the early 2000’s. With two of the industries leading shapers at the helm, the Broady Factory uses CNC shaping, buzztech heat lamination and purpose built Aku Shaping in order to produce high performance bodyboards for most of the world’s leading brands.
