JS hits the beaches of japan

Jason Stevenson (shaper and company founder) and Paul Stacy (head designer for 6 Star Boardiriding Co) recently took to the beaches of Japan in a pre organised demo day tour. With multiple stops and a hand full of boards under their arms, they toured the land of the rising sun not realising how popular the demo days would be.

The Japanese surfing community came along in droves to meet Jason and Paul, talk to them and get the chance to ride some of the JS Industries and 6 Star ranges. They scored some great waves during the demo days, and met a lot of good people and saw some great surfing. The boards were so popular with the surfers in Japan, that both Jason and Paul came back with no boards at all…….That’s right, they came home empty handed and even gave away their own personal boards

'This wave in Miyazaki was really fun. The take of was really good and started to really pitch, but then the wave fattened up in the mid section. It was a fun wave though and we were glad to get some good swell. We had such a great time surfing there and meeting all the locals. We couldn’t believe how many people wanted to ride our boards!!' said Jason about the Japan demo day tour.
