WATCH NOAH HILL IN 'STAY AWAY'

 

Rusty team rider, Noah Hill carved a name for himself with his flair for innovation and fearless approach to throaty waves. If you saw his previous edits - Casual Threat, Momentary Pleasure and As It Is - then you know what to expect from his newest surf film. And it's safe to say, Stay Away  does not disappoint.

Check out the full vid below - meant for a slightly bigger screen!

 

 

CURIOUS WHAT NOAH WAS RIDING?

"What is a What?? The What? is Rusty’s version of your standard high performance shortboard. It will perform best in shoulder high to well overhead in better conditions with waves that have more power behind them. The What? has a somewhat narrow nose that travels into a mildly curvy mid-section and then to a slight, elongated bump just after the rear of the front fins in the tail. The overall rocker is fairly aggressive to allow for maximum performance and top to bottom surfing. The bottom is where this board starts testing the waters. It starts off in the tip flat and rapidly deepens into a single concave, this gives the board a lot of speed. At the mid-section, it reduces in depth and then develops into a shallow, slightly hooked, double con, then a slight vee off the tail to allow for rail to rail transitions. The What? is what you’re reaching for when you want maximum performance out of a board whether you're doing turns, airs, or hunting tubes." - Rusty

"The Enough Said was first developed with Josh Kerr over ten years ago. It was, and still is, a very popular design. It is a thumb tail performance shortboard that goes well in chest high to overhead surf. It features a fairly relaxed proven nose rocker and a heavy single concave in the back half of the board. The tail rocker is slightly lower to accommodate the heavy concave. There is slightly less volume under the chest to minimize the swing weight. This board is designed to have a fairly tight, smooth, turning radius and react quickly in the pocket when you need it most due to the extra bit of tail curve and the elliptical tail. Although it is over ten years old, it's still a very valid HPSB (high performance short board) design." - Rusty
