Focus Backdoor Pro

Focus Surfboards sponsored our first pro event, held at the legendary break BACKDOOR, Bat Galim Haifa, Israel.
The event was in memory of Ofer Zehavi, Alon Shimony and Guy Tzoref.
It was an amazing event with 3-4ft waves and some stormy condition. The storm didn’t prevent the surfers to show up and give their best to entertain the crowd of hundreds of people who stopped by during the day to see the event.

I will post the names of the winners later on, first place juniors and first place men won FOCUS boards! Lucky guys!

I also want to thank Billabong, Hurley and Ofer Mano who arranged the event; we are looking forward to more events like that this coming year.

Here is a link to some pictures on FACEBOOK; we will have a complete album this week.

Some news from Japan, Nitzan is currently in Japan with our distributors and he is having a great time.
We had an amazing reaction from our booth at the surf Expo Yokahama; people are completely excited about our custom made Japan lineup.

The SUP scene in Japan is blowing up real fast and we are very happy to be positioned in the right place at the right time.


Check out the pictures from the show and from a fun session with Nitzan, Hiro and our team rider Ikaika Kauai.
