Secondly it’s a bloody good way of keeping karma on your side, a bit like not eating Shark Empanadas, and we...

Melon Grab to Toeside

Adding grabs to any move guarantees extra spice and will undoubtedly make it feel even better. There are also times when a quick fix is needed, when you don’t want to be slamming yourself and the mind just isn’t in game on mode, so refreshing something that you can already do is a relatively simple and gratifying experience.

ION Products Amaze Core 4/3 Front Zip Wetsuit Women

When I first unboxed ION’s Amaze CORE 4/3 Front Zip, the very first thing I noticed was how incredibly soft it felt. It did not have that stiff, rubbery feel you sometimes get with thicker wetsuits. The colour immediately stood out too. The purple and lime green combo is bright, bold, and definitely a standout on the beach. What I...
