The Story
A true bodyboarding icon, the Science Mike 7-7 Bodyboard blends legendary design with modern construction to deliver outstanding performance in today's surf. Retaining the classic template and feel that made it a favourite for generations, this updated version features advanced materials for increased durability, lighter weight, and responsive flex. Built for experienced riders who appreciate timeless performance, the Mike 7-7 is equally at home in everyday surf and more powerful waves.
Every purchase also honours the legacy of bodyboarding's inventor, with proceeds from each board supporting the Tom Morey family.
Legendary Shape
The Mike 7-7 features the original proven template that has stood the test of time, offering a balanced combination of speed, control, and manoeuvrability. A classic crescent tail provides excellent hold through turns, while slot channels increase grip and drive. Finished with 55/45 double rails, nose bulbs, and a tail piece for enhanced control and comfort in all conditions.
Advanced Construction
At the heart of the board is Science's innovative 1.2PP LiteFlex polypropylene core, engineered to be approximately 30% lighter than traditional 1.9PP cores. The reduced density creates a more responsive flex pattern that closely replicates the feel of classic PE cores while delivering the durability and rebound of polypropylene. Designed to perform exceptionally well in cool water conditions, it's paired with a WaveCushion Air 8lb PE deck, premium Surlyn slick skin, and a single stringer for the ideal balance of strength, projection, and flex.
Ideal Conditions
Perfect for intermediate to advanced riders looking for a high-performance bodyboard with classic styling and modern technology. Designed to excel in a wide range of surf conditions, particularly in cooler water where the LiteFlex core performs at its best.
