KAULI VAASTS' QUIVER BREAKDOWN ON THE ROAD TO GOLD.

カウリ・ヴァーストのクイバー詳細 – 金メダルへの道

カウリが金メダルを獲得するまでのトレーニング期間中に使用したクイバーの詳細を紹介。大会では幅広いコンディションに対応する必要があったが、彼はそのすべてを乗りこなすために厳選したボードを駆使し、最高のパフォーマンスを発揮した。そのクイバーの内訳をさらに掘り下げていく。

Kauli was already used to surfing Teahupo’o most days of the week, alongside the other reef passes a short ski or boat ride from his house. Add in preparation for the biggest contest of his life alongside team France, and he was out there every single day with coach Jeremy Flores regardless of conditions.

JS made him an 11 board quiver specifically for the event, from Monsta 10 shortboards through to FMN3s and Schooners as step-ups. Based on previous feedback, Kauli preferred the FMN3s for days with a southerly swell direction that makes Tahiti’s most famous wave run longer, more like a point. While the Schooner is his preference for the heaviest slabs that come with a predominantly west swell direction.

Kauli's official final winner below - 5'11" x 19" x 2 ½" Monsta 10 Squash Tail 28.6L
