About the original
Tom Morey invented the bodyboard on July 7, 1971 in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii, cutting a prone surfing craft from a block of polyethylene foam with an electric carving knife and an iron. He called the prototype the Boogie. The Mach 7, first produced in 1981, is the line's long-running 42.5-inch board with a polyethylene core, HDPE slick bottom, single REX stringer, and crescent tail, the standard contest spec for two generations of competitive bodyboarders. The SS21 Supreme collab uses the same 45 x 23-inch Mach 7 construction with large printed Supreme and Morey logos on the deck and bottom. Released July 8, 2021 at $178 retail.
About Morey
Morey is an American bodyboard manufacturer founded in 1971 by engineer and surfer Tom Morey in Hawaii. Morey, a USC mathematics graduate and former Douglas Aircraft composites engineer, cut and shaped the first prototype from a sheet of polyethylene foam on July 7, 1971, after waking to good waves with no board to ride. He trademarked the Boogie name and was producing 80,000 boards a year by 1977, the year he sold the company. Morey Boogie has since passed through Kransco and Wham-O ownership and effectively created the bodyboarding category. Tom Morey died in 2021 at age 86. Supreme collaborated with Morey on a Boogie Board.
