Quiksilver is once again shaping the next wave of household names in surfing.

If you’re old enough to remember the Young Guns films of the mid-to-late noughties, chances are you’re not a young gun… But for a generation, those films are iconic – launching and defining surfers like Dane Reynolds, Craig Anderson, Julian Wilson, Jeremy Flores and more.

Well, now Young Guns is back, with a whole new roster of future icons.

 

Last night we saw Al Cleland Jr.’s month in Indo pay off, bagging the ender, Hughie Vaughan’s and Mikey Wright’s sections showed why they’re some of the best free surfers in the world, and Griffin Colapinto’s time between events showcased that he scored waves all over the globe.

We were also treated to beers from 4 Pines Brewing Company (of course), food in Nathan Kostechko’s art beer cups and burger boxes, plus free tees, stickers and signatures. With curtain raisers from Cruz Uros, Brody Mulik, Sage Goldsbury and Milla Brown!
