WHO - SURFER/SHAPER Kevin Connelly

WHAT - Kurrently Classic WHERE - CHEVROLET Revolt COLLAB SERIES Summer Surf Series

Kevin was fortunate to learn his trade from some of surfing's modern legends. Skip Frye took him under his wing early on and laid the foundations of his shaping concepts and fundamentals. Later, with Skip's blessing, he accepted an offer from Larry Gordon of Gordon and Smith to join their team as a professional surfer and shape on the side.

Collaboration between Gordon & Smith Surfboards and Kevin Connelly. This new line of G&S boards brings a fresh approach, blending decades of proven design, with current modern outlines & foils.

After his time with G&S, a sponsorship deal brought him into Rusty Preisendorfer's stable of shapers and pro surfers. His time with Rusty was where he combined the concepts of glide and flow - learned from Skip, plus the finer points of the classic longboard from G&S, and combined them with modern outlines and foils.

He recently reconnected with his roots, again setting up shop at the G&S factory where he currently shapes and collaborates with their team of great board builders & craftsmen...

"After traveling the globe and honing my skills, I have recently returned to G&S where I started my career 20 years ago. It's an honor to bring my modern twist to a timeless line of boards and be surrounded by a great team of craftsmen at the Gordon & Smith Surfboard Factory. I am 100% stoked!" - Kevin Connelly The result is the first of 6 new G&S models for 2016.

Hovercraft, KC Komp, Drone, Formula 1 & 2 and the Slider. All 100% Handshaped so you're 100% stoked Check out the entire line at www.gordonandsmith.com

The event, is a fundraiser that benefits the Mission Valley/Krause Family Bike and Skatepark and the Grind for Life Cancer charity.

With a long history of skateparks, this is the 4th skatepark build by the Mission Valley YMCA over the past 20 years.

Their mission is to provide the largest, safest, and most progressive action sports facility in San Diego.

Andy’s versatile style and tremendous experience allow him to excel in street skating, skateparks, vert, pools and big air ramps.

In 2010 Danny founded 404 Sup Boards and launched his new company by winning both Battle of the Paddle races in Hawaii and California and going undefeated for the year in SUP competition.

Stand up paddle boarding is a relatively new sport in terms of becoming mainstream; although it's been enjoyed for decades, its popularity exploded around 2005.

Enthusiasts express SUP possibilities as limitless—some important figures have even predicted it will become an Olympic sport.

Since then, Danny has also founded Hippo Stick SUP Paddles and recorded multiple SUP victories, his most memorable coming at the prestigious Battle of the Paddle California and Hawaii, including 3 BOP Elite victories, 6 BOP distance victories, 7 Overall BOPs.

Now that the sport is gaining wide popularity—and with it more festivals, races, and skill-based competitions.

The Pacific Paddle Games, Hanohano Huki Ocean Challenge & the Isle Sunday X3 Paddle Race Series are all proof that the sport is here to stay

Danny also holds the current title as ' “Fastest Paddler On Earth” - in 2014 he set a World Record by paddling 200 meteres in just 47 seconds. He finished the event with an unbelievable average speed of 9.44 mph. See more at www.404sup.com

Stand up paddle racing is on the shortlist of sports for the inaugural World Beach Games, an event that’s designed to be the “Beach Olympics” when it launches in 2017.

The World Beach Games will be held at San Diego’s Mission Beach.

Live music, great raffles, product demos, food and drinks, all add to the family friendly, festival atmosphere.
