Relapse ~ Brad Stone.


Australia is home to some of the heaviest, most unforgiving waves on the planet and Inverted Bodyboarding team rider Brad Stone continues to prove why he thrives in the biggest conditions our coastline can throw at him.


Filmed at various heavy locations around Australia and edited by Jake Stone, this latest clip showcases Brad doing what he does best: taking on thick slabs, late drops, and hollow pits in serious surf. This isn’t small-wave flair. This is commitment in consequence.


Brad’s ability to read shifting bowls and commit under the lip separates him from the pack. Across multiple sessions and locations, this edit captures:

- Late, steep take-offs
- Deep slab barrels
- Thick offshore ledges
- Heavy water landings
- Precision line selection in critical sections

Every wave in this edit reinforces why he’s one of Australia’s most respected heavy-water bodyboarders.

When the surf gets serious, equipment matters. Brad’s board of choice?

Funkshen Bodyboards — The Brad Stone Polypro Pro Model

Designed specifically for powerful waves, the Funkshen Brad Stone Polypro is clearly built to last in the most testing conditions.

Why Brad Trusts It:

- Premium Polypropylene (PP) core, with cabron fibre stringer for stiffness & projection
- Reinforced construction and materials (Surlyn and mesh) for heavy water durability
- Brads shape and curve, designed for speed, hold and control in steep slabs
- Proven under serious impact

If you're chasing heavy waves, this is a board designed to handle them.

👉 Ride what the heavy water specialists ride.
