Matt Banting warms up in France

As of right now Matt Banting is currently winning the WQS. He’s almost guaranteed his spot on the World Tour for 2015 and might be the freshest face to qualify this year. Here he is warming up in France and trying out a few new sleds before the event. Looks like they go pretty well t0o, and if the surf for the event is anything like it is in this video, expect this gent to cause a few upsets.
