      Wetsuits Built for the Demands of Bodyboarding

      When you're lying prone on the board and powering through the surf, your wetsuit needs to offer more than just warmth—it needs to handle impact, reduce drag, and allow maximum flexibility through your core and legs. Our range of men’s bodyboarding wetsuits is designed with all of that in mind, giving you the confidence to stay out longer and ride harder.

      Key Features for Bodyboarders

      Bodyboarding wetsuits often differ slightly from surf wetsuits. Here’s what to look for:

      • Flexible lower body panels for optimal leg drive during kicking
      • Chest and elbow protection to reduce rash from the board
      • Durable seams and reinforced knees to withstand constant movement
      • Smooth skin panels that reduce wind chill and offer better glide

      Suited for Aussie Conditions

      From summer bodyboarding in northern NSW and QLD, to heavier winter swells in Victoria and SA, our wetsuit collection has you covered across seasons and surf zones. Need something lightweight for warm water? Try a springsuit. Chasing heavier conditions? Go for a sealed and taped steamer for maximum warmth and performance.

      FAQs

      Many wetsuits can be used for both bodyboarding and surfing, but bodyboarders often prefer wetsuits with extra flexibility through the hips and legs for kicking, along with durable chest and elbow panels to reduce wear from contact with the board.

      When choosing a bodyboarding wetsuit, consider:

      • Water temperature
      • Wetsuit thickness
      • Flexibility
      • Seam construction
      • Zip system
      • Fit and comfort

      A suit that allows unrestricted kicking and movement is particularly important for bodyboarding.

      Absolutely. Many bodyboarders surf year-round. A winter wetsuit with the appropriate thickness, combined with boots and other accessories if needed, can keep you comfortable in cold-water conditions.

      The best wetsuit depends on where you ride:

      • Queensland: 2mm or 3/2mm wetsuits
      • NSW: 3/2mm or 4/3mm wetsuits depending on season
      • Victoria, Tasmania & South Australia: 4/3mm to 5/4mm wetsuits for colder months

      Most bodyboarders wear swimwear, wetsuit shorts, or compression garments underneath their wetsuit. The best option comes down to comfort and personal preference.

      Yes, wetsuits help reduce skin irritation and rash caused by repeated contact with the bodyboard, particularly around the chest, elbows, stomach, and thighs.
