Why use a Handplane ?
Your hand was never designed to plane on water.
A handplane transforms drag into lift - unlocking speed, control and flow.
Speed
The problem
When you bodysurf without a planing surface, your hand pushes through water instead of gliding across it.
Water resistance slows you down, making it harder to stay in the power of the wave.
What changes
A handplane creates hydrodynamic lift, allowing water to flow under the surface rather than against it.
Result
• faster acceleration
• longer trims
• more speed down the line
Control
The problem
In faster waves, the hand alone struggles to hold a clean line on the face.
It slips, sinks, and loses grip exactly when precision matters most.
What changes
The handplane acts like a controlled planing surface, giving you a stable point of contact with the wave.
Result
• cleaner lines
• precise trims
• more confidence in hollow waves
Wave Entry
The problem
Catching waves while bodysurfing demands perfect timing and positioning.
Without extra surface area, the wave often outruns you before the ride begins.
What changes
A handplane increases your paddling efficiency and lift, helping you match the speed of the wave earlier.
Result
• earlier entry
• fewer missed waves
• smoother takeoffs
Flow
The problem
Without a stable planing point, the body tends to lose alignment with the wave.
This breaks rhythm and reduces glide.
What changes
A handplane becomes a hydrodynamic anchor, stabilizing your body position as the wave carries you forward.
Result
• smoother body alignment
• cleaner trim
• uninterrupted flow
A handplane does not replace bodysurfing.
It simply allows your body to move through the wave the way water wants to flow.
