How the G.NOSE surfboard nose guard originated
It happened so fast. I fell off my board near the end of a wave and as I hit the water my board hit me near the eye. The injury split the skin behind the eye but could have been so much worse… It made me realise how it could happen anytime and I was taking my safety and others for granted. So we began developing our own surfboard nose guard to protect us and other surfers from injury. Read more here in our R&D section.
Surfing injuries are most common from fins or the pointy nose of the modern performance shortboard. The mechanism of injury most frequently responsible is the impact with the sharp nose of the surfboard following a fall. Read more here.
