Quiksilver Riders Blog

Just thought i’d bang something together and let everyone know whats been going on.. let you know what the team has been up to.

Travis and Jacko are off to Canada, Canaries, US and Hawaii for the last leg of the WQS, Trav is lokking solid at number 10 and Jacko has an outside chance at number 20. Anything can happen though as there are about 4 6 star primes left – it will probably go down to Hawaii. I would be sick to see Trav and Jacko on the WT next year representing Quik and SA.

Young Beyrick has been on fine form cleaning up on the junior scene taking out the U20 King of the Groms and the Billabong Junior event in Vic Bay. He is now in Cali for a few events then off to Canada and Hawaii – his 1st time there, let’s see how he does.

Stan “Splinter” Badger is in Indo running riot at the moment, his blog posts are pretty classic – sounds like he is loving there. I would love to be a fly on the wall there to see what he has been getting up to. He is with a small crew and AVG is there behind the lens – the shot should be quite mad!!
Brett Shaw skated himself into the ground at the Bowlriders taking out 3rd spot, he was on fire and showed the kids what old school transition is all about!!

Kyle Lane has injured himself quite badly and has been out the water for quite some time, hope he can get the ankle sorted out pretty soon..

Well – that’s it for now… will keep you updated with some fresh news next week..

Travis doing what he does best!

Well, Yann took home the R10 000 winners check leaving Dallas Oberholzer a little humbled. Brett Shaw had a good night finishing in 3rd spot.

Will Twala absolutely killed himself and won the Red Bull Big Air award and R2 000.

We had Pat Duff (the Goat) on the mic and Ronald Rowley (DJ Onionpits) on the decks.. It was all going down..

Alex Giraud and Ross McGouran from Quiksilver Europe put on a good display for the crowd..

Look forward to bigger things next year. Go check the images and video out on the site..
