RESPECT the Environment

CNC PRECISION is a technology that allows a control system in which numerical values corresponding to desired tool or control positions are generated by a computer. The Control Numerical Control technology let us shape the boards with milimetrical precision, and the result is boards with very high quality details and extremely accurate measures. Precision also means no excess in raw materials, it´s Global Evolution! It´s Ecologic! We believe that being ecologically conscious means that one knows what hardships humanity has caused nature and it´s one of our goals. RESPECT the environment.

Evolution

The meaning of Respect: it´s both a positive feeling of esteem for a person or other entity (such as a nation or a religion), and also specific actions and conduct representative of that esteem. Respect can be a specific feeling of regard for the actual qualities of the one respected... That was the catch phrase "Respect my Crew". The evolution is a mystery full of change that no one sees. Clock makes a fool of history yesterday's too long ago. Don't agree with what I know. Tomorrow becomes the place to be. I see the line in the sand. Time to find out who I am. Would you like to see where I stand? Evolution... The world has changed

Deluxe Fins fourth rider

We from Deluxe Fins would like to introduce our fourth athlete Renan Faccini

Welcome Renan!

Blond, young, chic magnet, but not aussie, he´s Brazilian. From the new generation that abuses on the style and performance he's not only just a young kid that surfs good; his aggressive and unique style have put him a place on the top of the pops in Brazil.

The name Brenden Newton in the bodyboard world reminds you of some crazy aussie riding impossible waves... He could have learned from his 62 stiches on his face after a tremendous wipeout at shipstern´s bluff in Tasmania. His insanity was widely spread in the bodyboard movie ABC and Respect was earned in the community. After Tasmania he paddle at Teahupoo in a 18ft barrel he took a leave of absence and embraced God! His return was made possible with the effort of Respect Bodyboard CEO Rui Ferreira, who convinced him to do more insane things... I wonder who´s more crazy Brendo or Rui who pays someone to do insane sh*t!?! Every footage of Brendo riding a crazy wave should have Parental Guidance warnings or maybe he should join the "Jackass" crew...

Renan "The Future"

Rena Faccini, blond, young, chic magnet, but he´s not aussie, he´s brazilian. He trains in a wave called "The Rock" for obvious reasons (a Rockstar in the making). He dreams surfing perfect barrels, travelling the wolrd in search for such waves. Altough brazilian he started bodyboarding in California with 8 years old and never stoped. He doesn´t believe in competition, he prefers riding big hollow waves, have his picture taken and published, a freesurfer by nature and instinct. He focus on style and good trimming and doesn´t like ARS´s on small waves. He also has a business side and created his own brand Youth with the help of his family and friends.

Variable Stringer System™

Photo: Ricosurf. Many bodyboards use a stringer system to increase the bodyboard rigidity and performance. The stringer system employs an elongated rod or element which is inserted and secured longitudinally in the foam core material. The Respect Variable Stringer System™ improves your performance! That´s why JOSE OTAVIO Signature Model combines a Variable Stringer System™, has a EFC™ Core and DuPont Surlyn® + Mesh Flex System Slick. Jose Otavio approved!
