Hey Steven, I always like your videos 🤩 and your style of riding. I’d be super happy to see you riding the new Badger and performing your favorite strapless freestyle tricks… Enjoy your day🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤩
I would like that very much as well! I'm currently in Mauritius and will be playing around with the badger in the upcoming sessions if the swell isn't too big. Great to hear you're enjoying the content and thanks a lot for the support 🤙
Chief! Can you please make some videos about the new 2023 line of surfboards. For the love of the brand, give us a bit more info about the new product - more particularly interested in the Badger! Thank you in advance ma man! Much love from Toronto.
I'm glad to hear that you found this video helpful! I don't think that I'll make a new one like this as I don't have all the boards available at the moment, I'll see what I can do though.
The Badger is an amazing and super fun board for anything up to head high waves. It will be my prefered board to ride this year and will replace my 720. The badger gives a nice surf feeling and is very playful in the waves transitioning very nice from toe to heelside. Next to that it also pulls through the turn very well when you put it on rail.
When the waves get bigger I still prefer the green room, but then we're talking hollow waves that are overhead.
Nice! Whats size Ripper 4 you recommended for 88 kg? Thank you.
I would go for the 5'8, very playfull and snappy
So maybe 5’6 for 75kg, or even smaller? And what about the 720?
@@passatonvoisin 5'4 for the Ripper 4 and 4'11 720 should be perfect for you
Steven, here comes the light wind season in my place, usually the wind is like 7-15kts in lw season. I use to 15m with twintip, but it still sucks when the wind is sooooo light.
I m wondering if i change to 12m with surfboard, will it be more interesting? I never ride any surfboard before, i m kind want to explore it. But the key point is will the 12m with surfboard better than 15m with twintip for my situation?
It would be something new, so I think you would like it a lot! But... riding a 12m with a surfboard is very similar to riding a 15m with a twintip. It works, but after a while it's not so much fun.... Have you considered to go kite foiling? That is my all time favorite for light winds.
@@stevenakkersdijk i got my strapless last two weeks, it's soooo fin for me now. Let's see how long the fun will last, then decide whether gonna try foil! Thanks for replying me every time, nowadays you got lots of fans in China, hopefully some day you will come here and teach us something!
@@casparguo7300 That would be a cool trip for sure. Who knows! Have fun with the strapless board 🥳
@@stevenakkersdijk thx bro!
