Did you know quicksilver off loaded a heap of stickered up riders only four weeks ago world wide????Jack Freestone was a quick team rider and is now with team billabong ????The local news did a story on him the day after it was announced only to show him wearing quicky stuff and logo on his board,I bet billabong were not happy.????Imagine all the Rip Curl stuff Stepth would have to off load,from head to toe she would have it

Did you know that far greater than half of the sales by the surf companies is to girls. Womens wear is huge......... Quiky seems like they have a great plan in store to re-attack that market. Roxy made them huge and then poooooof! girls stopped wearing surf clothes as much moving to street brands (One Teaspoon etc etc). This is a new thing for them and I hope Steph does well, she's a nice girl, surfs insane (better than most blokes) and hopefully thrives with the new deal.
