Tech Focus - Lieuwe Brute

When the wind is cranking and the water turns chaotic, control becomes everything. The Lieuwe Brute is built for exactly these moments, a dedicated Big Air machine designed to stay composed under pressure and deliver confidence when riders are pushing at their limits. With a strong focus on grip, stability and predictability, this is a board aimed squarely at those who want to ride powered and stay in control when conditions are at their toughest.

The Stiffy

Here’s one from the dark ages, bringing back memories of two line kites, wrist leashes, long twin tips and even longer swims. The Stiffy is an inverted jump, but compared to today’s boner here both legs are used to push the board up high, kicking the lines with your toe side edge. To really claim it and make it more...

Cracking name to boot this deft little matador's flick of the wrist can make any blind landing with the kite high look the absolute dog’s. That said just popping to...

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...
