Bodyboards with the features included in the new 662 Pro Bodyboard typically retail anywhere from $200-$400. No other bodyboard brand in the world carries EPS price point models with a stringer or concave feature. This is typically reserved for professional models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuad Concave Channel Slick Design\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA design feature, known as a Concave, is a large channel running half the length of the bodyboard through to the back of the hull.  This feature is designed to streamline water flow through the center of the board keeping you higher on the wave face, which allows you to generate more speed into your bottom turns and gives the rider greater control. Whether the rider is on a 2 foot wave or 6 ft wave the channels provide additional speed with the benefit of added grip and power in turns. For someone that isn’t an experienced wave rider this will make catching waves much easier and more enjoyable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDouble Stringer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 662 FGS Stringer systems are Fiberglass rods used to add strength, increase stiffness and to help maintain good rocker. Stringers lengthen the life of a bodyboard making it almost impossible to snap. During production, stringers are inserted into the center of the core. They start at the tail and end 8\" from under the nose of the bodyboard. Higher end professional type bodyboards always have anywhere from 1 to 3 stringers. Not only do they provide the extra strength they also improve the way the board maneuvers and handles in the water. Boards without stringers can flex too much slowing the riders speed down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFull Deck Contour\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContour configurations improve your grip and lock your body into the position on the Bodyboard adding comfort and control for your elbows, hands, forearms, hips, and also lower torso\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFull Line Contour\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese deck contours run along the side edge of the left and right side of the board.
