Woah, how did things progress so hastily? The performance level has already increased, notably, in the 12 months since we last chose our favourite entries from the Young Guns opening week. You know what YG is, right? Quiksilver’s magnificent search engine to discover the best under-18 surfer in the world! By tagging either #YGair, #YGrail or #YGcombo on your best single air, turn or combo, you’ll put yourself in the running for real fame and glory; if you need more detail around the mechanics, dive over here. We’re currently in round one and the heat is already on, so get pumped on what Stab believes are the best in show so far (watch above), and if you fit the age bracket, get your best work on the ‘gram ASAP.
