Setups: Lex Hernandez-Roland’s Streetstyle Winning Snowboard Gear

Tech rail tricks and consistency helped Lex Hernandez-Roland defend their Dew Tour Streetstyle title as they went undefeated from the 2021 and 2023 winter seasons. Hailing from Minneapolis, where tow-rope slopes like Hyland Hills shaped and sharpened Lex’s skills. With abilities that match 10,000 hours of practice time, Lex’s snowboard gear and personal preferences are just as crucial to their success. Get a glimpse into Lex’s snowboard setup and choice of Nitro snowboard gear, O’Neill outerwear, and Giro helmet that make them feel comfortable rails in the Setups video above. #dewtour

Rookie Rippers 2023 I Johanne Defay & Jordy Smith invite the next groms to join Team O'Neill

16 of the best Groms across Europe joined O'Neill Rookie Rippers last October at The Wave in Bristol, UK. A unique opportunity to be coached by some of the best athletes in the world.

In this edition, Johanne Defay and Jordy Smith each drafted a team of Groms to go head to head in challenges crafted by world-class surf coaches, Philippe Malvaux and Ben Skinner.

Out of the water, Groms received training, video analysis of their sessions, mindset advice and lots of Q&A time with the Pros. The jam-packed weekend allowed the team to build stronger relationships with our distributors, the local core surf community and the future of surfing.

Team Johanne took the cake for most points won and two lucky Groms were crowned MVP. Next year they will be sponsored riders of Team O'Neill.

Cheers to everyone who helped make this event a success! Keep your eyes open for upcoming opportunities.

Strike Missions: You Should Have Been Here Tomorrow | Episode 14 | O'Neill

In this episode of O'Neill Strike Missions: You Should Have Been Here Tomorrow, Team O'Neill travels south of the equator in hopes of scoring some of the best left-handed point breaks this world has to offer.

O’Neill Strike Missions is a film series documenting Team O'Neill’s surf adventures across the globe. It’s all about tracking swell and striking when the time is right, hoping the gamble pays off and the risk is worth the reward. This episode's power team consisted of Ian Crane, Brett Barley, Noah Wegrich, and Kolohe Andino.

What seemed to be an epic forecast with a game plan of non-stop surf quickly shifted to a laid-back surf trip with the boys, riding whatever felt right for the day and learning to appreciate the beauty that Peru had to offer. The running joke that we, as surfers, all know and have learned to laugh at: "Tomorrow will be the day" was something we incorporated into our daily vocabulary. This is Strike Missions: You Should Have Been Here Tomorrow. We hope you enjoy.

Strike Missions: City To Suburb | Episode 13 | O'Neill

Every surfer’s dream is to score a hurricane swell with their friends. No matter what level of surfing you are at, there is always going to be that thought in the back of your mind. The thought of traveling across the country, or sometimes the world, to catch a specific swell in a specific area that will likely only last a few days. A swell that may be the first and last of its kind. Hard to say whether or not Hurricane Lee will be the last of its kind, but it showed up big time. Lucky for us, the boys were there to capitalize.

Ian Crane, Timo Simmers, Robbie McCormick, Cory and Luke Lopez, and Brett Barley were live at the scene, following this golden goose every step of the way.

This is Strike Missions: City To Suburb. We hope you enjoy.

Behind The Strike | Land Of The Right Hand | O'Neill

Some of a surf trip's most memorable moments happen during the in-between. In between surfing and reviewing clips, in between getting breakfast and waxing boards, and oftentimes in between one surf check to the next. These are the moments when personalities shine, and characters emerge.

Strike Missions: Land Of The Right Hand had a lot of great moments in between. We hope you enjoy them as much as we did.

Strike Missions: The Land Of The Right Hand | Episode 12 | O'Neill

In this episode of O'Neill Strike Missions: The Land Of The Right Hand, Team O'Neill travels across the Atlantic to the Northwestern stretch of the African coastline, Morocco.

O’Neill Strike Missions is a film series documenting Team O'Neill’s surf adventures across the globe. It’s all about tracking swell and striking when the time is right, hoping the gamble pays off and the risk is worth the reward. This episode's power team consisted of Ian Crane, Robbie McCormick, Eli Beukes, Torrey Meister, and Gui Ribeiro. We knew little about the region, other than the waves that were on the menu. Right-hand point breaks as far as the eye can see, and the results did not disappoint. This is Morocco, this is The Land Of The Right Hand. We hope you enjoy.

Chasing The Unicorn

Chasing the Unicorn traces the history of surfing in post-war Mozambique, while searching for a mythical sand-bottomed wave that lies along this tropical slice of East Africa.

Along the way, we meet Sung Min Cho and Julia Fernando, the country’s leading surfers, and get acquainted with Mozambique’s burgeoning surf culture that has risen up in the wake of 30 years of armed conflict.

The film, produced by Monster Energy in association with O’Neill, is an ode to adventure and a surfing nation on the rise.

Featuring: Sung Min Cho, Eli Beukes, Julia Fernando, Mikey February, Jordy Smith, Brendon Gibbens and others.
