Watch Now: “Stab In The Dark” Starring Mick Fanning In Japan

Once and for all.

With our next Stab in the Dark project—featuring past SITD stars Dane Reynolds, Jordy Smith, and Mick Fanning—premiering in one month’s time, we thought it made sense to release, once and for all, Mick Fanning’s 2018 epoxy surfboard examination to the world. 

Watch the 3x Champ as he dissects a seemingly anonymous, eco-minded quiver in cyclonic Japanese surf, then selects his three favorites, eliminates one due to perceived biases, and chooses between the final two in quintessential east coast Australian surf. 

At the end of this film, you’ll find a teaser for our 2019 SITD project (coming Dec 6!), which thanks to the three-headed monster of Dane, Jordy, and Mick, might just be our best ep to date.

We truly hope you enjoy.
