Board test day with the Beagle, Lennix Smith

So what’s the R&D summary from Lenno? Board test number 1, a Xero Fusion squash, has plenty of glide due to extra foam and a flatter rocker, while number 2, a Monsta round tail, has more drive as you’d expect from a shortboard with a performance curve. It’s still easy to surf in small beachbreaks like our test day, yet has the versatility to work in waves with push and solid sections making it the favourite for a few upcoming contests.

Then in weaker conditions, Lenno’s made the huge call that if he only had one board he could ride for the rest of his life, board number 3 his Xero Fusion swallow is the choice… So far.

Seeing as Stab is in the storytelling business, we rarely get the chance to create straightforward surf cinema.

In contrast, this trip was meant to be straight out of the Kai Neville* playbook — really good surfers in really good waves, a few funny moments in between, catchy tunes on top, aaaaand cut.

Everything was on track for a seamless production.

We had a top-tier cast, five filmers on deck, and the location was a guaranteed score (famous last words).

Cue the worst Ments forecast of the season, our main filmer’s RED crashing upon arrival, and one of our marquee surfers pulling out at the last minute.

As Danny J told us, surf films are hard. But this was some Murphy’s Law type shit.

Of course, the remaining surfers couldn’t have cared less. This trip was the reward for wi... Read More ...
