No rashes where you don't want those to be

That's right remember the velcro for the front and those heavy and itchy textiles companies were using the past few years.

First Hurley came up with a pretty good system for the front dingdong and Volcom had a zipper.

The past couple of months I saw ads on my surf mag with a sample of the Diamond Dobby, the new material used by Quiksilver...I will not bore you with the details but they are aimed to dry faster, no sticky feeling in the water and particularly no rashes guaranted.



Oh I forgot they also gurantee that you can surf like this rookie on the picture:

K.I.N.G of snow: final

Last weekend the best four participants out of 7 rounds have been invited to La Plagne (FRA) to try to stick the last trick – a BS 900° shown by Quiksilver Pro Freddy Austbo!

Benno Postert (AUT), Martin Kalliola (FIN), Niko Lansio (FIN) and Saku Tiilikainen (FIN) are allowed to feel like a snowboard pro for a couple of days. Quiksilver payed everything: flights, accomodations, breakfasts, dinners, lifttickets and drinks. On top our four finalists received a wildcard for Mathieu Crepel´s Invitational Chromatophobia which allowed them to ride the La Plagne Superpipe with stars like Markku Koski, Oliver Gittler, Frederik Austbo, Arthur Longo and Christian Haller, only to name a few.

Saturday was the big day for the finalists. They had two hours time, to stick their BS 900° at the reserved Kicker at La Plagne snowpark. you can go in here to vote for the one who did it best.
