The Legendary Pro X bodyboard is a beginner board with an EPS foam core, a soft EPE foam deck and a hard slick bottom, sold in 33, 37, 41, 42 and 45 inch sizes. On its listed specs it suits casual riders in small beach waves, not riders who want a board for bigger surf.
These notes are for someone already looking at this board. They cover what the seller lists, which size to pick and what to check before you buy. To compare it with other boards, see our bodyboard buying guide. WaterSportHQ editors have not ridden it.
What the listing says
The specs below come from the seller’s Amazon listing (sold under the brand GYN Trade), checked on 2026-10-21:
- Sizes: 33, 37, 41, 42 and 45 inches.
- Core: EPS (expanded polystyrene).
- Deck: EPE foam, described as soft for grip.
- Bottom: a “hard slick”; the listing does not name the material.
- Build: heat sealed rather than glued. The seller says this makes the board stiffer and prevents bubbles.
- Shape: crescent tail and two bottom channels.
- Leash: detachable wrist leash included.
- Skill level: beginner.
- Warranty: none listed.
The listing gives no width, thickness, stringer or rider weight for each size.
Is the Legendary Pro X bodyboard good for a beginner?
On paper, yes, for a beginner in small waves. The seller rates it for beginners, the EPS core is light and floats well, and the leash comes in the box.
It is a poor fit for:
- Bigger or hollow waves. No stringer is listed. Morey, for comparison, lists a stringer on its Big Kahuna and Mach 7 boards for durability and flex control.
- Riders who want a warranty. The listing shows none.
Which size to get
The board should reach from your knees to about your chin when stood on end. The seller gives no size chart, so this table uses the WaterSportHQ editors’ rule-of-thumb chart in the body board vs boogie board guide:
| Legendary size | Rider height | Rider weight |
|---|---|---|
| 33 in | 4 ft 6 or less | 75 lb or less |
| 37 in | 4 ft 6 to 5 ft | 80 to 100 lb |
| 41 in | 5 ft 3 to 5 ft 8 | 125 to 175 lb |
| 42 in | 5 ft 9 to 6 ft | 150 to 190 lb |
| 45 in | 6 ft 2 and up | 200 lb and up |
Between sizes, a beginner is better off on the longer board, which floats more.
What to check before you buy
- The size you selected. Each size and color combination is a separate listing, so confirm the size after you pick a color.
- The board on arrival. Look for bubbles or lifted skin along the rails before the first session, while a return is still easy.
- Where the leash attaches. The listing says the leash plug sits at the bottom of the board. Check it is set firmly in the foam.

Looking after it
Rinse the board in fresh water after salt water, and keep it out of hot cars and direct sun; heat is what makes skins bubble. For more on fit, see bodyboard sizes.
