"Yu Sumitomo contacted me after seeing some of my social media posts. Yu had been making these cutting-edge carbon fiber surfboards in Japan for a number of years. He asked if he could build me a noserider out of these advanced materials and I jumped at the chance. It ended up being the best performing surfboard I’d ever ridden. Yu flew me to Japan where he had made 12 boards waiting for me that were all white. I spent two weeks testing and riding them as we toured our way through Japan. This was a startling and unexpected moment in my life where an alternative surfboard construction had grabbed nearly all of my attention. It worked so much better than anything I’d ever ridden that it was simply undeniable." - C J Nelsen
