Lightning 42'' Performance

Ordered this for our family vacation at the beach. It held up well in the ocean. This board seems to be made with great material. It looks and feels sturdy. It’s not really heavy. The size was great for us adults as well as our teenage sons. Great value for the money. Color of this board was on point with the picture shown. Great overall purchase.

I bought this bodyboard for my 10 year old son. He always had bodyboards that cheap pieces of trash. He wanted one with a slick bottom so I started looking around and reading reviews about the best bodyboards out there. I found this one on a list of the top five bodyboards so I looked it up on Amazon. I thought it was a fair price so I bought it. He had a huge problem obeying me so I didn’t give it to him for a long time but once he started listening again I gave it to him. He was so stinking happy with it he just about wet his pants. It’s a little bit big for him he can just about get his arm around it when he is carrying it but he’s not shrinking. He looks so cute walking to the beach with the bodyboard in its carrying case. The orange color is great it really stands out in the water. This bodyboard allows him to ride even tiny waves. I feel bad I made him use body boards that sucked for so long. It’s totally worth the money.

This is an excellent quality board! I was a little concerned that a 42" board would be too large for me, but my 5'6" 110 pound self can maneuver it just fine! The larger size is great for a beginner like me, because it gives it much more stability. I will be able to enjoy this board when I become more advanced as well. The case it comes in has a liner on the inside to offer a little heat and sun protection (although you should never intentionally leave it in the sun or hot car as it could warp). The pouch on the front of the case is huge! It is holding my fins, fin socks, rash guard, sun screen, water bottle, and if I had snorkelling gear it would hold that too with room to spare! I am very happy with this board, and will try to come back and post pictures in a month or two after it has gotten a bit more use. Highly recommend!

This is the closest thing to the old boogie boards you bought at Costco in the 90s that latest decades. I bought it for my 30.year old duaghter who lives at beach and she loves it. She says you can't buy anything comparable anywhere near the beach!! She is buying one this summer for my grandson who is now 7 and loves to boogie board now.

160 dollar board, and ovio, none of that goes into quality assurance. I was tired of buying the sub $40 cheap boards and hving to replace them every week. Well i guess every week is better than as soon as i open the box. This board was highly rated online, and Im not really sure why. You would think when spending 150 + on a board, it would be checked before it left the warehouse. Wont buy again.

Pros:Very floaty and fastNice carry bag with shoulder straps makes it easy to lug to the beachCons:Wrist strap is too big for my wrist and too small for my bicep so I will have to purchase another strapZipper external pouch of bag is not very goodDeck is a bit soft. The strap left an imprint on board from being pressed against car seat so be carefulNote: the surface of board is very slick. I had to bum some wax off a surfing instructor. Kudos to endlesssummersurf on Hatteras island

Great board, quality etc

Much bigger than I expected, my 14 year old is excited to learn to use it. Trumps the small foam biggie boards by miles!!! Really well made and stode up to the Texas Gulf in good sized waves. For reference my son is 5'7". And it came with a nice carrying case that has a pouch to store fins or Google. Woukd recommend to others. My husband who surfers even said it's a good board, he was showing them how to use it.
