Gabriel Medina, who is in Japan from Brazil for the Olympics,
The board he had custom ordered arrived at Love Surf,
I went to give them two.
When I called his cell phone that day,
I have to go to practice in about an hour,
He is currently at the Brazilian team's hotel in Ichinomiya, Chiba Prefecture,
I told him to come out to the hotel entrance.
I was able to have him come out and hand it over to me directly.
Now, everyone in the world wants a board! They want to ride it! It's the "RNF'96"!
Both are the same size, 5'6".
One POLYESTER,
One EPS center stringer EPOXY.
According to Gabriel Medina,
Before these two,
"RNF'96" is going well in Brazil, and two have already been ridden.
Apparently he ordered "RNF'96" because he thought it would suit the small waves in Japan.
