Jordy Smith - Team O'Neill - World nr.1 in Surf : Go Yellow!

Jordy Smith rocks the yellow rashie going into Trestles

After a massive win over John John Florence at Teahupo'o, South African (Durban) surfer and O’Neill team rider Jordy Smith storms into the World Surf League Trestles (California) clash sporting the prized yellow rashie. Or in Jordy’s case the awesome yellow Transit Jacket.

That’s right, in this transitional season of autumn and with the World Title in his sights, the light insulation, O’Neill Hyperdry and recycled polyester shell of the hooded Transit Jacket are perfect for getting Jordy to the beach and back in winning style. A style that also earned Jordy wins at Trestles in 2014 and 2016.

The fact is that coming into this contest in yellow is the closest Jordy’s been to taking the World Title since the 2010/11 season, before he got injured and came second to Kelly (Slater).

To support Jordy at Trestles O’Neill launches the ‘Yellow Campaign’ turning some of their stores (Amsterdam, Nieuwpoort, Oberhausen) yellow to back him up. His teammates Jeremy Jones, Kevin Langeree and Nico von Lerchenfeld are also going full yellow, so Jordy’s got some solid support as he takes on the heavy hitters of the WSL.

Join us in our support of Jordy and go yellow.

Go Jordy!
