More waves, less plastic. The WAW BadFish Body Surfing Handplane in Sky Blue combines wave-riding performance with an innovative use of recycled plastic, making it an ideal beach accessory for surfers, bodysurfers and ocean lovers.
Designed to be worn on the lead hand while bodysurfing, the BadFish generates lift while reducing drag, helping the rider travel faster and enjoy greater control on the wave. Its purpose-designed shape features a deep concave hull for lift and control, an entry rocker to reduce splash and a fishtail cut-out for greater freedom while swimming.
The BadFish is certified Australian made and constructed from 99% post-consumer recycled plastic. WAW states that 33% comes from Australian ocean-collected plastic, including material recovered from the Great Barrier Reef and Coffs Harbour River System, while 66% comes from Australian household recycling.
Finished in vibrant Sky Blue, it's lightweight, durable and compact enough to throw into your beach bag for your next day by the waves.

Why You’ll Love It
The BadFish makes bodysurfing more accessible while remaining compact enough to become a permanent fixture in the beach bag. Its planing design provides lift and reduces drag, helping riders enjoy more speed, longer rides and greater control.
It also gives discarded plastic another purpose. WAW's Australian supply chain turns post-consumer and ocean-collected plastic into a durable piece of wave-riding equipment rather than relying entirely on new plastic.
How to Use
Secure the safety wrist leash, slip your lead hand beneath the adjustable strap and tighten it comfortably. As you catch a wave, extend the handplane across the water's surface. The planing surface creates lift and reduces drag as you move through the wave. Only one handplane is required for bodysurfing.
Ideal for beach days, holidays and as a unique gift for surfers and ocean lovers.
