At the recent Volcom TCT Championship Contest, Kei, who is 17 years old, made it to the finals in the Junior Division and placed third. Here is a report on the Proam Division, which is the older class for older surfers. Three of the four finalists in the Proam Division were using LOST surfboards, so we'd like to introduce them to you.
3rd place: "Wesley Dantas" BRAZIL
He is the younger brother of current WCT player Wiggory Dantas.
His backside surfing, inherited from his older brother, is even sharper and faster.
He has high air and explosive surfing, and he also came to Chiba QS6000 in Japan.
2nd place: Matt Pasquindich, USA
He is also known as FU WAXER on the East Coast.
He is not yet well known in Japan, but he surfs carefully and racks up scores to win contests. He is very skilled and careful in how he uses the waves.
Winner: Griffin Colapinto, USA
He also came to QS6000 in Chiba, Japan, but struggled with small waves. Today, however, he won in a landslide victory, hitting consecutive 9-point rides in the final on local waves he knows well.
Nishii filmed the ride of these WCT hopefuls, so please look forward to its release!
LOST surfboards took the top three spots!
A well-conditioned board that runs well and moves freely - that's the hallmark of a MAYHEM surfboard!
