Reef ambassador Blair Conklin will be flying the flag for the US and competing in the Spring Classic Surf Invitational.

Conklin is a three-time World Skimboard Champion, Berkeley-educated environmental scientist, Instagram tastemaker, and all-around surfing freakydeak. If a piece of fibreglass or foam floats, he can ride it, spin it, wing it, twist, skim or twirl it. As a Reef ambassador, he’ll be flying in from Laguna to join the crew and can’t wait to experience the best of British surfing!
