Placebo 5'5"『SHANE BESCHEN』FLEX LITE!

『SHANE BESCHEN』 Placebo 5'5" FILM & EDIT by Daisuke Nakano http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/camp/rocket.html Schoen Beschen rides his signature model ROCKET, This is a riding movie of surfing on Japanese waves. This board is It's made by Precebo Flexlite and the rider is a whopping 5'5". Of course, it is a pre-made size. Shane's height and weight are outside the appropriate size, The paddling power and technique make up for that, and the takeoff is extremely fast. It doesn't seem to lack buoyancy. After taking off, the thick waves didn't start breaking easily. Shane makes good use of the rocket's properties, He makes fluttering turns, gaining speed and riding all the way to the close-out section, where he performs airs and other moves. What I want you to learn from this riding collection is how to connect these waves, At the top, we try to lay the rail as flat as possible to increase the weight load. This will result in bigger turns and lines, more spray and more powerful surfing. Every riding, You can see that even with Japan's weak waves, you can reach such high speeds. This Rocket model is made of Flexlite material, and as the name suggests, it is a magic design from Mayhem that allows you to instantly accelerate and gain speed even on flat sections, just like a rocket.
