Who a 42.5 inch Cruiser fits
The older listing recommended the Cruiser for riders 5 ft 9 and taller who weigh 160 to 185 pounds. The current listings give no rider height, and one colorway lists a 195 pound maximum. The WaterSportHQ editors’ rule-of-thumb chart in the body board vs boogie board guide puts a 42 inch board at about 5 ft 9 to 6 ft and 150 to 190 pounds, close to the older figure.
The board should reach from your knees to about your chin when stood on end. By the same chart, riders under about 5 ft 8 fit a 41 inch board or shorter.
What the Cruiser is not built for
- Bigger waves. No stringer is listed. Morey lists a stringer on its Big Kahuna and Mach boards, and says the fiberglass stringer in the Mach 12 MDS is “a shield against snaps and creases, especially when riding bigger waves”.
- Riders over 195 pounds, the listed maximum. By the editors’ chart they fit a 43 to 44 inch board; see our notes on 44 inch bodyboards, and check each board’s own limit.

What to check before you buy
- The colorway: each color is a separate listing, so confirm it is the 42.5 inch Cruiser after you pick one.
- The board on arrival: look for bubbles or lifted skin along the rails while a return is still easy.
- The leash plug: check it is set firmly in the foam before the first session.
Editors’ rule of thumb: rinse the board in fresh water after salt water, and keep it out of hot cars and direct sun, since heat can make the skins bubble. For more on fit, see bodyboard sizes.
