THE COMEBACK EPISODE

After almost two years of a sabbatical-esque break, I am back with a BANGER for all of you longboard nerds!

Taylor Jensen is one of my and many peoples favorite longboarders to watch. And for good reason. One of his surfing strengths that separate him from other great world class longboarders is his fluidity connecting every maneuver within a ride with grace, speed and power. A three time LB World Champ, now reaching his 4th decade in age, he seeks with ambition and determination a WC number 4. This one though has a different aspect to it. 
WSL LB competition has changed its esthetic of performance. The three time World Champ has made some adaptations to conform with the LB Tour of today. A more classic and traditional approach of longboard surfing. He had success in 2023 but things at the end did not go his way. What will 2024 bring for Mr. Jensen?

Topics:
The WSL LB Tour
Jensen's Competitive Longboarding Transition
Longboard Design
Reader's Questions
Etiquette
Divisiveness in the LB Community 
Comp LBders vs Free Surf LBders
Comnpetition Longboarding of the Past.

Enjoy!!!!!
