Mada’s Bede Durbidge still on Fire

Mada sponsored surfer Bede Durbidge found his rhythm right off the bat in this year's first WCT event, winning every heat en route to a rematch of lasts year's final with current world champ Mick Fanning.

Bede surfed his way into the Semi Finals where he posted an amazing 16.60 out of a possible 20. An amazing start to the 2008 WCT season for Bede Durbidge. After winning the last event of 2007, The Pipeline Masters, and winning the Triple Crown, it is apparent in his surfing that Bede has gained even more confidence that he can beat anyone in the world.

Mada sponsored surfer Bede Durbidge


When you think Mada what comes to mind? I know for me it’s music Lostprophets are wearing it over here in the UK but they are also a skate company and many of the riders are also sponsored by Ice Cream Shoes (come on you’ve heard of Ice Cream, Billionaire Boys Club and connections with Bape) well here the big new Mada sponsored surfboard Bede Durbidge is killing it (see his 07 figures below) from almost nowhere to this in one amazing year.

· Finished No. 5 on the WCT rankings
· Won the Pipeline Masters
· Became the first Aussie in over a decade to take out the Hawaiian Triple Crown
· With that latter double, collected the biggest single pay day in pro surfing history – a cool US $75,000
