More waves, less plastic. The WAW BadFish Body Surfing Handplane in Midnight Black is the ultimate beach accessory for anyone who loves getting amongst the waves.
Designed to enhance the bodysurfing experience, the BadFish creates lift as you ride, helping to reduce drag and increase speed and control. Its concave hull, rockered nose entry and fishtail cut-out are purpose-designed to make catching and riding waves easier and more enjoyable. WAW describes the BadFish as suitable for all abilities, with a fully adjustable hand strap designed to accommodate different hand sizes.
Even better, this high-performance handplane puts recycled materials to work. WAW currently manufactures the BadFish from 99% post-consumer recycled plastic, sourced from Australian ocean clean-ups and domestic recycling streams. Ocean plastic sources include the Great Barrier Reef and Coffs Harbour River System. The remaining 1% consists of UV stabiliser and colouring.
Lightweight, durable and compact enough for the beach bag, the Midnight BadFish makes a brilliant gift for surfers, swimmers, beach lovers and anyone keen to experience bodysurfing.

Why You’ll Love It
The BadFish combines surf performance with an innovative approach to recycled materials. Its shape provides lift while reducing drag, helping bodysurfers ride waves faster, longer and with greater control.
It's also lightweight and easy to throw into a beach bag, making it a fun gift for the surfer or ocean lover who already seems to have everything.
How to Use
Slip your hand beneath the adjustable strap and secure the safety wrist leash before entering the water. Only one handplane is required and it is generally worn on the lead hand. As you catch a wave, place the handplane against the water's surface to create lift, helping your body plane across the wave with reduced drag and greater control.
Beach safety: Always bodysurf within your swimming ability and according to local beach and surf conditions.
