Jacob Romero signs with FLIPMODE Clothing
Good news here: Jacob Romero signs with FLIPMODE Clothing !
FLIPMODE Clothing is very happy & excited to announce the signing of Jacob Romero. Hailing from Maui zones (as he calls it), Jacob has been turning heads for the last few years & getting a lot of media coverage in Australia & overseas.
Most of us know him as the “CHOUT” guy but with a preference for heavy waves & big boosts, Jacob is leading the charge for the new breed of riders coming from Hawaii. His past performances on the IBA & USBA tour are a testament to his hunger for success.
Jacob was recently described by Pierre-Louis Costes (Riptide #180) as being part of the new generation of innovators of the sport, always trying new moves.
In 2011, Jacob is the perfect addition to the team & will help establish/solidify the brand on the international market. Alongside Jones Russell, Jacob will be competing in the 2011 pipeline pro & follow both the GQS & USBA tours. We wish him the best of luck in his quest to be the next world champ.

Jake Stone rides for VS
Jake Stone joins VS ! Yewwww – Check the little video clip VS & Jake filmed: http://vimeo.com/19723518
Nick Mesritz Designs is pleased to announce that Jake Stone has signed on as the latest addition to the VS Project. Jake will join Ryan Hardy & Joe Clarke in one of the world’s most exclusive and dynamic bodyboarding teams.
Speaking from his state-of-the-art production facility in East Java, Indonesia, Mez commented: “We are stoked to have signed Jake to VS. I have been closely watching his progression over the last couple of seasons and Jake has graduated from the hot grom of yesterday to a solidified professional rider. He has benefited from his move to the West Side of Australia, which has enabled Jake to take his surfing to the next level. From riding fun wedges, to taming gigantic kegs in the outer ocean, Jake is the perfect candidate to push the boundaries for the next evolution of the VS project”
Jake’s first efforts as a VS team rider will be to tackle Hawaii’s famed North Shore. While on “The Rock”, Jake will unveil his new VS set-up at the first event for 2011 of the IBA Grand Slam Tour; The Pipeline Pro. With his breakthrough IBA victory in Ferrol, Spain last season, at only 21 years of age, Jake is a genuine World Title Contender for the 2011 Tour.
This year the VS Project takes on a different direction. With 2 of the foundation shapers of the project taking the next step in their respective careers, the dynamic of the shaper aspect has evolved. Todd Quigley heads up the shaping and design facility in Australia, where he will work closely with the 3 riders to develop and refine their boards. Nick Mesritz is taking on a more active role working closely with both Todd and the riders to provide expert knowledge in the areas of construction and material design. With Todd as head shaper, Mez running the VS production in Indonesia and the riders taking care of business in the water, this 1, 2, 3 synergy will undoubtedly deliver one of the most progressive bodyboard ranges in the world.
The VS Jake Stone signature series is in development and will be available in leading surf stores worldwide later in the year. In the meantime, the VS Project is proud to release Jake’s first VS podcast. – http://vimeo.com/19723518
