What's up

G Skate Demo Tapes: Australia The G Skate Demo Tapes' Australia edition follows Pat Gudauskas for a week as he meets up and surfs with fellow CI Teamriders Wade Goodall, Jordy Lawler and Kalani Ball. They lucked into week of cooking surf while all riding the same design Pat had worked closely with his brother (Dane and Tanner) and Britt Merrick. Some opted for Spine-Tek construction for that added pop and performance through turns. For the Oz boys it was their first time riding this new design, and the range of "very good" to "good average" surf allowed them to feel out a range of possibilities with this shorter railed design. As you'll see, this skatey style board allowed them to draw some very creative lines at high speeds. This edit captures the radical surfing that went down during those sessions. The goal of the G Skate project between the G Bros and Britt was to create something fresh feeling that turned well in good surf but skated with ease through the not-so-good stuff. There was one major stipulation during its development: the G Skate had to still perform at the highest levels possible. They achieved this by shortening their typical shortboard rail line by 5” and adding curves and contours in key places that would keep them on top of the water and not hinder their turns in any way. Adding a 2 + 1 (twin plus trailer) fin set-up tied the whole concept together. The G Skate has a lot of get up and go speed thanks to its light single to double concave, low entry rocker, wide point forward—and its contemporary shortboard rails provide all the precision and control you could ever want. This stoke-infused collaboration also yielded an all-new Merrick / Gudauskas 2 + 1 fin set for the G Skate, and they also found that the AMT (2 + 1) fin set up works very well. The purpose of this twin plus trailer fin set-up was to offer the beautiful “free feel” of a twinnie yet have the refined control of a thruster—which is critical in creating a board that accommodates the broad spectrum of approaches between all three G Bros. For those that prefer traditional thruster set-ups, their favorite 3-fin set will work well in this design—giving surfers twice the options and value. The G Skate serves as a strong utility piece in any quiver where fun and performance are the goal. Ride this board 3” to 6” shorter and the same thickness as your CI Pro.

Who Landed The Biggest Air In The Best Surf Film Of The Year?| Pentacoastal B-Sides If Pentacoastal isn’t your favorite surf film from this year, you should find a new optician. Wade Goodall and Shane Fletcher crafted one of the most taint-tingling surf flicks I’ve seen in a minute. Luckily, our boy Danny J has been kind enough to break the film into 3 segments, so our feeble minds can digest it in small doses. This is due to the fact that watching it all at once may be overstimulating for some viewers, plus most of us only get 15-minute lunch breaks. Video: Wade Goodall/Shane Fletcher

Our Fav Sections From Pentacoastal Pentacoastal dropped in May, yet its relevance has persisted into the depths of 2020. One could say this is due to a large lack of surf content as a result of stringent travel bans, but that’s simply not the case. While difficult, plenty of surfers found means to travel whilst adhering to social distancing and quarantine guidelines, taking boat trips to the Mentawais and many a Brazilian enjoying aquatic Maldivian delights. Wade and Shane's Pentacoastal has remained relevant due to the sheer quality of their film. See above for proof. Video: Danny Johnson and Shane Fletcher
