Top American pro bodyboarder Spencer Skipper has started his own bodyboard accessory company and this top of the line leash at a premium price is his 1st product!
“With all the fake’s in our industry I figured it was time to make a product with some credibility behind it. I’ve dedicated most of my life to the sport of bodyboarding and have figured out what works and what doesn’t. Denzien products will enhance your riding…”
– Spencer Skipper

New Vert Mag is out. Issue 79 (June) has an exclusive Mike Stewart interview, a Cook Islands trip and heaps more articles. Cheers to Toze and his crew for delivering such a cool mag. Even if i personnaly dont read Portuguese or understand it, the mag looks awesome (yes i’ve got this issue on my desk as i’m writing this) with great pics, great layout, perfect printing quality and design, pretty much like a Movement Mag by made in Portugal. Portuguese riders can be proud of their mag and riders, i’m telling you. Check the cover / features here.
