In the PKRA ...
"In the men's wave division, Australian rider Keahi De Aboitiz (Cabrinha, AUS) was a show stealer executing strapless maneuvers such as aerials, 360-degree rotations as well as impressive cutbacks on the edge of the critical section of nearly every wave earning him the PKRA Lanzarote wave single elimination title by defeating Fabio Nunes (Gastra, BRA) in an extremely close men's final.

"close final" my arse. Keahi would have smashed any guy named Fabio.
Although I reckon Fabio would have had a better hair cut than Keahi, but Im not sure the PKRA has a division for hair cuts.
I notice he's riding a 5'6" Cabrinha Skillet, anyone else tried them, opinions ? Anyone know their volume, and bottom contour ? I don't understand why vendors don't provide this information.

Thanks for all the support guys. I've been having a great time doing the tour and its cool kiting at all the different locations overseas. Here are a few more shots from the events.
Keahi
2:38....
With skills like that no wonder he's killing it. I thought only Euros rode waves strapped.... good on Keahi.
