SOFTECH MOJO BODYBOARD, SKY BLUE ZEBRA
EXCLUDES LEASH AND FINS.
A boogie board is still the fastest way to have fun in average waves, and the cheap ones from the warehouse are the reason people think otherwise. They go soft, they snap, and they end up in the shed by February.
The Softech Mojo is a proper entry level bodyboard built to last a summer and then several more.
5 REASONS WHY YOU NEED THIS BOARD
- An EPS core with a 4mm CXL deck, which is real bodyboard construction rather than the solid foam slab you get at a department store.
- An HDPE slick bottom, so it actually planes and holds a line across the wave instead of sliding out.
- Light enough for a kid to carry and handle on their own, which is the difference between a board that gets used and one that does not.
- A centre deck plug is already fitted, so a leash goes straight on with no drilling.
- Five sizes across the range, so you can match the board to the rider rather than buying one board for the whole family.
SIZES
- 36"
- 40"
- 45" , single stringer
HOW TO WORK OUT THE SIZE YOU NEED
Bodyboard sizing goes on rider height, not weight. Stood on its end, the board should reach somewhere between your belly button and your chest. Too short and it will not plane, too long and it is hard to control and hard to duck under waves.
As a rough guide, 36" and 38" suit younger kids, 40" and 42" suit older kids and smaller teenagers, and 45" suits larger teenagers and adults. If you are between two, size down for control and up for glide.
Not sure? Tell us the rider's height and age and we will tell you which size we would go for.
WHO IT'S BEST FOR
- Beginner to intermediate bodyboarders
- Kids and families wanting a board that lasts more than one summer
- Easy, playful conditions rather than heavy surf
- Anyone after a cheap, reliable board for the bach

WHY A PROPER BOOGIE BOARD IS WORTH IT
The difference between a real bodyboard and a supermarket one is the core and the bottom. A solid foam slab with a printed bottom does not plane. It pushes water, it slows down, and it gets left behind by the wave.
An EPS core with a slick HDPE bottom planes properly. You go faster, you hold a line across the wave, and you ride instead of just getting pushed in.
ABOUT THE MOJO BODYBOARD
Softech describe the Mojo as a high-quality entry level lightweight bodyboard, suited to beginner and intermediate riders for all-round fun in easy conditions. That is an honest description and we would not oversell it beyond that.
Every size runs an EPS core, a 4mm CXL deck and an HDPE slick bottom. The 45" adds a single stringer for stiffness, which is what you want once a bigger rider is putting real load through it.
HOW IT COMPARES
Against a supermarket board, the Mojo has a real core and a real slick bottom, which is the whole difference in how it rides and how long it lasts.
Against a performance bodyboard it is deliberately simpler and far cheaper. If you are charging heavy shorebreak you want something stiffer. For everyone else, this is the sensible board.
IMPORTANT NOTES
- Easy conditions. Softech rate the Mojo for beginner to intermediate riders in easy waves. It is not built for heavy shorebreak.
- You will want a leash. The centre deck plug is fitted but no leash is included.
- Fins help more than you would think. Swim fins make a bigger difference to a bodyboarder than almost any other bit of kit. Ask us.
- Keep it out of the sun. Leaving any bodyboard on hot sand or in a hot car will delaminate the deck over time.
