As most of you know i’ve been away for the last week on a road trip up the east coast cruising around getting waves and checking out the QuikyPro at Snapper.
While i was on the Goldie i managed to get a sneek peak at some the new and exciting things that are happening in the retail surfing world at the Kirra Surf trade show.
Great new wetsuit tech from Billabong, Oniell, Ripcurl and Xcel, along with new boards and fins from JS Industries, Future Fins, and FCS. (Expect to see another “out-there” Wilko wettie for the Ripcurl Pro in Bells!) I wont disclose to much, but keep an eye out on the listed companies for their insane wetsuit tech! Did someone say surfing in Alaska???!!!!
All the big names were there: Parko, Taj, Carissa Moore, WIlko, Jordy, Gabby Medina, Ace B, Ellie Jean Coffey, and MC Ronnie Blakey just to name a few.
Shoutout to Kirra Surf for putting a great evening with free beer and pizza and getting up close with big names in surfing.
Great stuff. Come on, you can tell us more.
Ill do you one better and show you!
Oneill and Jordy.. The worlds lightest wetsuit.. Psycho 3.
Dope. Psycho II was one of the best wetsuits on the market. Loved that thing.
