Wally

While most of the Outer Banks portion of our team was repping at ECSC in Virginia Beach over the past weekend, Seth Barrick was blowing up here in Kill Devil Hills!

NEW BLOOD!

Ability welcomes 2 new team riders to the family! Evan Runion from Pawley's Island, South Carolina will be holding it down for us on the surf end as our youngest team rider and first South Carolinian on the team. Trevor Lampton from the Outer Banks will be holding it down on the skate end in Wilmington, North Carolina aside from doing "school" work at UNCW. We're stoked to have some new blood on the team!

"Colin's Cadence" feature on www.easternsurf.com

www.easternsurf.com(Eastern Surf Magazine's online website) had a great feature on the Tropical Storm Cadence swell covering ground and displaying photos from South Florida to the Northeast! "Like they say, every dog has his day"... Ability was the dog who had his day in this feature! Team rider's Christian Kane and Jeffrey Myers BOTH plugged amazing shots in the "Colin's Cadence" feature!!! The Pruett'esque editorial captions were right on the money as well(as always)! Be sure to check out the full photo/editorial feature on www.easternsurf.com!

Team rider Christian Cane has been getting a
ton of skate photos and skate media during the past
year. Most everyone thought he was kind of done
surfing, including Ability. A new Mike Rowe custom

and a few sessions later, Kane grabs the spotlight as his
natural talent and surfing ability would have him do.

cramp his style". PHOTO Mickey 2M McCarthy
























If you've been keeping up with our news blog lately,
which we hope you have! Team rider Jeffrey Myers has
had an insane media run, and it doesn't look like
he's going to stop any time soon! Photo number 1, 001
from the Tropical Storm Colin swell! CAPTION:
"God help Jeff Myers' incoming call list when the
lovely ladies of the Mid-Atlantic catch sight of
Myers flexing through this radically tweaked-out
backside fin throw". PHOTO: Mickey 2M McCarthy

LOCAL SESSIONS "SHAPER SERIES: JESSE FERNANDEZ"

Shaper Jesse Fernandez got a great editorial "Shaper Series" feature in the Aug/Sept issue of "Local Sessions" Magazine. Being an avid rider of Fernandez's boards, team rider Jeffrey Myers was sure to show up in a photo(and he did). Be sure to pick up Local Sessions in your local Surf Shop or check out www.local-sessions.com

MYERS IS ON FIRE!

Team rider Jeffrey Myers was literally on fire this past weekend during the TS Colin swell! Finishing up with an impressive 5th place and $900 purse at the Reef/Sweetwater Pro-Am in Wilmington, NC last month, a photo trip to the Caribbean over the winter producing photos in several publications, and a huge run of media over this past Spring, Myers is just warming up for the storm season!
