Australian Freestyle Nationals

The WA crew head over to Cairns Australia to compete in the first Australian freestyle nationals on Green Island. The video gives a feel for the island, the conditions, and the up-and -coming freestyle scene in Australia. Unfortunately we had the strong wind on the first few days, and went windsurfing instead of filming, so we can promise the island does get windier than this.

2014 Fanatic Skate released

Fanatic has one huge advantage in the Freestyle market, multiple time freestyle World champion, Gollito Estredo. For 2014, a new tail design with integrated arch support in the tail pad offers the ultimate in comfort and control and eliminates the double-rail shape in the tail.

The Limited Team edition in Innegra Carbon construction remains as a lighter, stiffer and more UV resistant laminate in the TE model’s 85, 93, 101, and 111-liter sizes The Biax Glass version is available in 100 and 110 L models which are slightly longer and forgiving for aimed at freestyle fun for any level.

“If you’ve got an aggressive, competitive style, you need early-planing, low swing-weight shapes and smooth front-to-back flow to blend tricks from air through to sliding phases. The Skate’s rails do this perfectly – with amazing pads and deck shape to cushion the ride.” – Gollito
