Mirage Activate Compression Liner Boardshort
Surf Stronger For Longer
The Ultimate Compression Liner Boardshort that helps you perform at a higher level and recover faster.
Developed by 3x World Champion Mick Fanning and WSL Co-Medical Director & Chiropractic Sports Medicine Specialist Dr Tim Brown.
Body-mapping silicone grip is designed to stimulate body position awareness and activate underused core surfing muscle groups,
balancing mobility, power, posture, and joint alignment. The compression liner helps to decrease lactic acid build-up, reduce fatigue and aid faster recovery.
New for 2023: A redesigned waistband and easy-entry fly construction increasing comfort and making it faster to get into and go surfing.
Mick Fanning's Hidden Secret
*Anyone with an existing health issue, particularly a skin or circulatory condition, who is unsure about the
risks of compression clothing should speak with a healthcare professional before making a purchase.
What professional Rip Curl athletes think of the Mirage Activate Compression Liner Boardshort
Dr Tim Brown
“Muscles control bones, and bones control joints. If muscles on one side of the joint are tighter than the other, then the joint moves towards that tension. What we're doing with the (Mirage Activate boardshort) is recognising these certain muscles that aren’t strong enough to help support the joint or help align the joint are not being used as much as they should be. A posterior chain of muscles in the shorts stimulate the body to fire those muscles. When you put the shorts on, it feels like someone has grabbed you from behind and given you a lift.”- Dr Tim Brown
