There’s something tranquil about blasting across the water on freeride or slalom gear, just like across these blue waters in Guadalupe.
Austrlian wavesailor Sean O’brien brings us a freeride clip off the coast from Down-under.
That feeling you get. The release, the redemption. Pack your bags for the next trip. Passports, wallet, chargers, boards. On a famous, yet relatively unknown island, full of wild creatures and surrounded by blissful reef; Sean O’Brien spent a winter month, exploring, riding, exploring some more. We filmed everything we did that month and this is our produce. In this original short by WeAreNeverLeaving, Sean takes us on a trip from Cairns to Green Island and some unexplored parts of Vlasoff Cay on the Arlington Reef. A tropical Australian paradise, which blooms in winter rather than summer; an escape from the cold when it’s needed most. Put your feet up and stereo loud.
Mauritius has a lot to offer! Among them crystal clear blue waters, and a freeride paradise! Just check out these conditions at Preskil Beach Resort.
The 2014 Magic Ride is a brand new board in JP’s lineup. The board looks to fit between fits between freeride and the classic shortboard, with a short, wide and thin shape. Check out this video from the JP photoshoot on Maui with action from Julie Kornum and Andy “Bubble” Chambers. Shaper Werner Gnigler explains the new shape with Andy Chambers.
This is an all-new, thrilling and exciting concept of extra wide, short and thin freeride boards within the JP line. It features so far unseen early planing with the easiest jibing possible. The main difference to comparable boards from our competition is, that they really give you an electrifying feel which you normally only get from much smaller boards. Their early planing and top speed is also unmatched in their class. – JP Marekting
