Is Back Ten years ago a man with a strange name created a website which gave the general bodyboarding public its first faceless voice. Rabi, a Western Australian techno wiz looked into the future and saw the need for an online bodyboarding community via this new thing called The Internet and Fluidzone was born. For a long time his site was the biggest bodyboarding website in the world and lead the way for all the tech savvy websites, blogs and twittering ways of our industry today. Fluidzone was so popular that some well trained hackers broke the main frame and infiltrated the database and brought the site to a standstill. Eventually reeking havoc which Rabi could not repair. So on the Ten Year anniversary of Fluidzone I am very proud to head up the new website and push the GO button on a totally new site. Our big brother, Swellnet that a lot of you already know and use for daily surf forecasts and reports is behind the relaunch of the site. Fluidzone will bring you all of these state of the art tools for forecasting and live surf cams but be 100% bodyboarding content. To kick things off we are bringing you the live webcast from the Turbo Pipe Pro 2010, so sit back tell your boss your busy and enjoy each and every heat, live. If you would like to shoot across anything you think is newsworthy for the site please do, but for now, bookmark that old favourite and make it a daily routine to drop by. |

sport. They have put our boards, leashes and fins through
their paces in a range of locations across the globe. Forget
what you thought you knew….Welcome to the 2010 team. Brad "Hugey" Hughes The
Professional. The waves Hugey has ridden have redefined what
is possible on a bodyboard. The boy from WA is a threat on
both the Oz and World Tour due to his ability to tear apart
anything from 1 foot to 20. Hugey is planning a massive
assault in 2010 having already scored in South Oz, WA and East
Coast he has now turned his attention to James "Flames" Kates The
Freestyler. The kid has blown up over the last 12 months with
a continuous stream of shots and mind smacking video coverage.
His style both in and out of the water is unique and
infectious…… something
that holds him in good stead with his peers. Nick “Baby Face” Rubesaame The
Grom. Been a loyal rider for HB and is now finding his feet in
the BB world. Breaking free from his birthplace, the Chris "Bill" The
Shadow. When your brother is world #2, some pretty heavy
expectations are thrust upon you. The northern beaches
shredder has traveled the world, surfed the spots and got the
shots. He surfs with consistency and style above his
years…… and never lets anything get in the way of a Sunday
session. Chris “Ceedub” The
individual. Never one to care for the mainstream or the
comments made by its followers, Wilso finds comfort in big
waves, huge airs and very tight jeans. His personality is
nothing but likeable and with a new ski in the garage, 2010
will be nothing short of astonishing. Look for him somewhere
above you. Matt “Hulk: Young The
underrated. After lying dormant on the This
