Elias Elhardt has been smashing it this season. Not only did the German ripper bag the cover of our first issue of the season but his full part in Rip Curl’s Alive and Kickin’ was one of the best parts we’ve seen in a long while. No surprise then that he’s landed himself his own signature series with Dakine which includes a Heli Pro backpack and Fillmore mitt. Apparently the inspiration for the print came from a surf trip that he was on down in Guatemala where the lifestyle, culture and warm weather stoked him out so much that he wanted a little reminder of the good times on his hands (and back) when he’s freezing his tits off in the snow! Solid product, nice looking print. Nice one Elias.

You can find out more about these pieces, including their tech specs and whatnot over at the Dakine website.
