Body-boarding is so underrated. No matter the conditions, whether it’s sloppy or perfect, you can body-surf. It’s so much fun too, you can barrel through waves that surfers couldn’t even try to barrel through. I love surfing but I love body-boarding just as much.

I grew up body boarding in Hawaii because my mom wouldn't let me surf. I now just moved to Puerto Rico from Austin and am going to turn 50 - born in '71, same year as the 'boogie board.' :) Walked to the beach here at San Juan yesterday- new years and there was almost no one in the line up. Can't wait. Thanks for the post and a little history. *A.

Good video on body boarding. I recall when living on Oahu in the early to mid sixties the Waikiki Wall was my favorite hangout and would marvel at some of the kids STANDING up on Paipo Boards shaving the wall on the small waves. Some of the boards were just pieces of varnished plywood with a round nose, in fact I even saw a kid out there once using a McDonald's tray. Would love to see some recent body board foiling as it is still pretty scarce.
