History of Yow and Gabriel Medina
Yow (Your Own Wave) is a pioneer in surfskates, founded with the idea of bringing the feeling of surfing to the streets. Their unique truck systems allow skaters to ride sharp turns and smooth lines, similar to the experience on the water. In collaboration with leading surfers like Gabriel Medina, Yow creates surfskates that combine the best of both worlds: the power of surfing and the mobility of skateboarding.
Gabriel Medina, two-time world surfing champion, is an inspiration to surfers worldwide. His signature boards are designed to reflect his unique style of surfing: aggressive, fluid turns and aerial acrobatics. The Medina Panthera 33.5" is a tribute to his strong personality and impressive performance on the water.
