Two of my friends recently purchased Hot Buttered body boards and they are extremely happy. One at £90 and one at £80 seems a bit expensive but they have definitely noticed the difference. The boards are lighter, easier to turn and do tricks on. They are both Terminator T3s 10-90 (43”) and are Hot Buttered’s proven performers over three summers. The crescent shaped tail allows more control and acceleration through turns. The shape, build and weight also means more straight-line speed and thus more waves! The T3 also has the HB PE Diamond Core, apparently revolutionary in body board technology. See below for the science bit! This is a brilliant board, the difference is there and you will not be disappointed with the performance of the T3. It may seem expensive but there are more expensive boards that look tacky and don’t perform as well as HB boards. Also, HB boards tend to look a lot better than any of the competition.
Spec. HB's PE Diamond Core and PVA deck skins are the foundation of HB's quality based reputation built on de-lamination return rates of less than 1%. D. Core is water resistant with excellent memory retention.
Advantages: fast, light, excellent grip, everything is possible. uited for prone riders Disadvantages: not good for drop knee riding but is possible

This blew most of my birthday money so was unable to put a leash in it. i brought me some wax though and went on it on the same ... ...the waves that came and hung on to all the waves that i caught. i stuck to the board excellently. i am still saving for a leash but i dont care as the board has never slipped out of my hands because of the TRS which is the tappered rail system that alows your to grip the rail alot better than before which means turns can be sharper and faster allowing for higher rolls and faster tricks which means more tricks to a wave.
this board is priced for ...

Soup’s something I eat quite a lot of. It’s cheap, quick and easy – not to mention versatile (I sometimes use it in place of pasta sauce, or add curry powder to make a kind of curry). If you go for the right soup too, it’s normally low fat and vegetable... more
