The Kustom Airstrike ends in six days. Fifty K on the line. Innovative aerial manoeuvres the name of the game. Stab spoke to three men who earn their living capturing the progression of surfing through a lens to get some perspective on some of the leading clips. Despite vested interests in the Airstrike, (the filmer of the winning clip is awarded five K, and both filmers have clips in the contest), few in the world speak with as much authority on the topic of tech punts – Kai Neville having spent 12 months watching the boundaries of the sport shattered as director of Modern Collective, and Riley Blakeway about to release what's being called one of the most innovative compilations of surfing ever, Chippa Wilson's biopic, NOW. Finally, Stab couldn't, in the name of journalistic integrity, author a story on aerial surfing without the opinion of James 'Jimmicane' Wilson, the most outspoken aerial surfing critic in the game.
