In this epic episode, and our most comprehensive film yet, we celebrate the incredible achievements of world tour surfer, shaper, father and 11 times European Longboard Champion Ben ‘Skindog’ Skinner. 

Ben is one the greats of global surfing and shaping, and still going strong, while his kids Lukas and Lila are brimming with talent and already winning junior titles. Ben’s contest achievements are exceptional. From a young age (growing up in Jersey then moving to Cornwall) he had an electric competitive streak that still resonates at the highest level. This has taken him to world tour finals, world title silver medals and countless national titles. He has been Europe’s most successful competitive surfer, and is still at the top of his game.
