I was thinking and thought that if kickboards float then, why can’t you use it was a handplane when you body surf. So i tried it our and it worked out fine. Is there a certain shape i could cut the kickboard so it can help when i bodysurf?
If the kick board your talking about is similiar to the type that my college swim team had maybe 2 ft by a foot I would definitely trim it in a bit and shorten it a bit. Also I'm not to sure what you would want to use to foil it, the foam ours were made out of were kinda rubbery(conflict of terms I know) and seems like they might tear while working . I can post some pics tonight of some I've done but there are some great pics already on here try searching paulownia plane or hand gun. hope that helps

Most definitely! We used em all the time as groms and teens. There’s no need to alter them, just grab on and go. Oh, but don,t try to hold on to it in critical situations or you may break your wrist/forearm.
Have Fun!!!
BTW- You can pick one up at Play It Again Sports real cheap.
thank you for all the help
