Josh Kerr - Enough Said
Josh Kerrs has worked with Rusty to develop this board for the start of the WCT tour. The rocker has a moderate tail rocker with a more generous nose rocker designed to work from small to medium good quality waves. It features a straight planshape for increased acceleration and drive. The bottom has a medium single concave throughout the board. This board is fast and loose and a good performer in everyday conditions.
Rusty x Star Surf - Shape Your Own Board With Aido
Last week, Rusty Australia’s head shaper Aido Wheeler jetted over to the West Coast for a week of one-on-one shaping lessons with a group of lucky customers from Star Surf + Skate.
Star is one of a dying breed of surf shops in Australia that still maintains a working shaping bay on its premises. For the last three years, Aido and Rusty have taken advantage of Star’s shaping bay and stoked out about 50 customers by giving them their first taste of shaping a personalised magic carpet with their own hands.

Noa Deane - Feeling Strange Again
Coolangata native and coming from a legendary family in the Australian surfing sphere, Noa Deane is like most of his elders. At barely 21 he’s already become one of the best surfers in the world. Yet Noa doesn’t just express himself though an explosive, aerial approach to surfing, he also possesses a deep passion for music and the art of carving on concrete. Desillusion editor in chief Sebastien Zanella spent two days with the young prodigy gaining an introspection into his world, experimenting the scope of musical possibilities, seeking his own limits.

Kerr and Noa Waking
What isn’t to love about Josh Kerr? Not only is he a webcast drawcard (at any location), but he also wake surfs like a boss. So good is Mr Kerr at surfing a boat wake, that he’s sponsored by a wake boat company (Tige Boats).
Following the Rio Pro, Kerrzy stuck around in Brazil with fellow Rusty teamer Noa Deane, and did time on a friend’s yacht. The benefit of a heavier boat? A much bigger wake. Really, it isn’t too far from a wavepool when done right. “This thing was different to the wake boats I usually surf behind,” says Kerrzy. “It’s a 30-foot, three-bedroom yacht. It’s naturally weighted almost perfect.”
