Dedicated performance shortboarders might be surprised to learn that single fin logs are equally if not more complex than their shorter counterparts. That explains why CJ Nelson and Eden Saul of Dead Kooks toiled away for the better part of a year at their most recent collab – a design called the Guerrero. That’s warrior if you don’t habla español. CJ and his team recently logged some tip time, testing the design, and they must have figured something out because it looks like it goes insane.
“Here we capture a couple of the first team sessions on the EPS and carbon fiber CJ Nelson Designs x Dead Kooks collaboration board, the Guerrero,” says CJ. “Pushing our longboard surfing to our personal limits through new building materials and design is the goal. Evolving our sport with an open mind, respect and love. Soak up the good times vibes.”
