We are stoked to have Raiha on our New Zealand Team.

Raiha was born and raised in the coastal town of Mount Maunganui, NZ. Like many, Raiha instantly found Surfing to be infectious. She was drawn to the unpredictable nature of the ocean and the sport itself. Raiha has since gone on to represent New Zealand on the qualifying series and in ISA competitions. Raiha splits her time between the east and west coasts of NZ, Surfing at her hometown “the mount” or at the pumping left-hand point breaks of Raglan..

Pro Surfer

C-Skins are stoked to welcome Matt Meola to the Slaves team. Growing up in Maui and having the world’s best waves on his doorstep almost made it impossible for Matt not to take the leap into professional surfing. His aerial surfing and experimentation with rotations led to Matt being one of only two surfers to ever land a frontside 540 and then just to make sure it wasn’t a fluke, he went on to do it again.

WSL Competitor

After wearing C-Skins in the past, we were stoked to get Wade officially on the team in 2018. Wade is a serious threat to the championship tour this year and anyone that knows him will know what a humble, hard-working and all-around good bloke he is.

Surfer | Artist

Neil has long thrived on being outdoors. Inhabiting the peripheries and delighted with his surroundings. Endless dawns, dusks and throwing lips, deserted beaches, dream points. Seeing and creating new angles of the world achieved only by stripping everything back to simply live in the now.

"I'm from Faro, Portugal.
Since the first time I put my feet on a surfboard at 8 years old, I knew that was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life!
After a few years of competing locally, I decided to take it up to the nationals. A whole new world that I wasn't ready for until I met John Tranter from Pigdog Surf Camp who became my surf coach.
After a lot of work together over the last 2 years, I am now 2019's Portuguese National Surf Champion and on an international level, I have won the 2019's Boardmasters Roxy Open at Fistral"
