What we love about second generation kids ripping is when we see shades of their parents greatness.
At only 15, Noah Beschen is already a seasoned veteran on the North Shore of Oahu. Check out the style through his hacks.. Remind you of Shane much?
New school mind and a nuance of old school style and flow. The perfect mix.
Welcome to the psychedelic world of weird waves with Dylan Graves. Some serious river ripping going on here…
We journeyed into to the far away land of Wyoming. We saw buffalo, bald eagles and witnessed a large man down 3 liters of Hefeweizen in 11 minutes!!! Actually that was top gun ace camera man Dave Malcolm. A truly enjoyable experience, one might even say magical… and in that spirit we are very proud to present the official launch of Casual Slice!!! We call it… Weird Waves Wyoming?
Mason Ho shows us the way around Waimea Bay. From the outside peak to the inside shore break he’s got a knack for the place. When Eddie says ‘Go!’ so will Mr. Ho.
Meet Joao, he’s a quiet ten year old from Arrifana Portugal. He shreds.
Join brothers Koa & Alex Smith on a two-month surf journey through nine magical islands of Indonesia. “Thru My Eyes” is about following a calling into the unknown, to a place we thought only existed in our dreams. Or. A lot of crazy barrels and the kind of travel vibes that’ll have you booking a flight to Indo asap.
The WSL Commissioner, Kieren Perrow, and Women’s tour manager Jessi Miley-Dyer check out the Kelly Wave Co Pool with a bunch of tour heads. Verdict is good.
Interesting to see the many different moods of the pool from the glassy perfection of Kelly’s wave to the roughed up less palatable waves a lot of other folk get dealt. Same deal with, err, other pool tech, the first wave from dead calm is a glassy wonder, from there on out the chop is an issue. Especially the faster the turnaround time. More waves per hour equals way less quality.
Attenuating the chop and backwash and recycling time is the key thing for these pools. Get that right and it’s commercially viable. Seems the noises the WSL is making that the Kelly pools it wants to spread around the world might not be so public, or if they are, they will be expensive. Whatever the result it’s a big investment to build one and no business man, no matter how deep the pockets, is going to pour money into a wave pool shaped money pit.
