From California! Who will be riding the RNF-SNAPPER in Huntington Beach?
Nishii started his stay in California at the end of the year. Yesterday, I went to Huntington Beach for the first time in a while. I had a photo session with this guy, "Chucky." Since the end of the year, the rain has been continuing day after day and the wind has been blowing since the morning. There have been few days of typical California weather and the waves have been very small. She is busy with work and raising children, so she has limited time to surf. "Chucky" said that today was a good day to surf, We decided to shoot with small waves as well. Because of the waves, the board we rode was the ``RNF-SNAPPER'' that Nishii had in his car. This board is Nishii's personal board that he keeps in California. The board size is 5'5" 32CL. Chucky was enjoying surfing the small waves without being bothered by his large size! The RNF-SNAPPER is currently sold out, but will be available in stock in April 2022. If you're looking to get this model, please be patient!

When you ride the Lower Trestles, you can really see what kind of performance the board has. The waves break regularly, like a surfboard test course. The wind direction has been bad for the past few days, causing the waves to become choppy. The wind was only light on this day, so there were good waves breaking throughout the day. The waves have been good for the first time in a while at Lower Trestles, and there are many surfers, including Chris Ward, There were about 100 people there, including pros and kids, and it was hard to catch a wave.
