UK - Combe Martin - Childrens' body surf boards

Bodyboards on sale in the north Devon coastal village of Combe Martin. Various characters from the movie industry are represented on the top surfaces, attracting the younger buyer. The bodyboard differs from a surfboard in the fact that it is much shorter and made out of foam. Bodyboarding has been around since ancient Hawaiian days, it was called "Paipo" and was made out of koa wood. The modern board consists of a foam 'core' encapsulated by a plastic bottom and a softer foam top known as the deck. The core is made up from dow/polyethylene, arcel or, more recently, polypropylene.
