New Team Rider - RYAN HARDY!!!!!!!!

Thats right, we have Hardballs!! Hardy is the newest addition to the rapidly improving team lineup for us here at Emerald. Hardy has way to many career achievements to list here, but I can say he has graced the cover of Riptide and Movement more than once, one a bunch of Riptide Peer Polls, won the Shark Island Challenge twice, won the Pipeline Pro, been in the top 16 in the World Tour Rankings for a loooooong time, and been labelled the current generation's style king! Basically, Hardy is the man, and we are super stoked to have him on board with Emerald. Ryan currently also rides for VS Bodyboards, Reeflex Wetsuits, Creatures of Leisure leashes, Unite Clothing and Churchill Fins

Below are a couple of shots of the man himself in action.

This is the type of surfing that Hardy is known for - super clean tech skills and style in all wave conditions
