Quite possibly the most underrated barrel rider in the world, Anthony Walsh is quickly becoming a household name. Originally from Lennox Head, Australia and residing in Hawaii for more than 10 years, Walsh has become a bona fide pipe specialist. A member of the coveted GoPro team, both as an athlete and an employee, he shoots with and tests products around the globe. He blew minds with the wave he caught on his GoPro in Africa, winning the Surfline's GoPro of the World contest . And this hard-charging Aussie is primed and ready to go bigger, pull in deeper, and wreck shop on dance floors around the world in 2016.

"Anthony is not only one of the best barrel riders in the world, he is an incredibly talented photographer and videographer and has established a captivating style of his own in just a short period of time," said Mark Sweetser, re-fuel brand manager. "We are looking forward to seeing him push the envelope of what's possible while staying powered up with re-fuel power chargers."

re-fuel keeps Anthony powered up using re-fuel's Action Packs, GoPro battery chargers and power banks while he travels around the world, especially in locations without a power source. As a result, he can now shoot long time lapses and surf sessions so much more easily—and without having to worry about conserving his battery.

Since Anthony is on the water all day, he uses re-fuel Action Packs extended 6 hour and 24 hour batteries for his GoPro during long surf sessions and time lapses lasting more than two hours -- or in places where it's not easy to change batteries. That way, when the waves are good, he doesn't have to come in and miss a good session.

"re-fuel has the best and largest range of charging solutions from waterproof to dry, and the longest lasting battery life," said Anthony Walsh. "re-fuel suits my needs perfectly as I'm always shooting and its vast range of products work in water and for long periods and charge multiple products. No other company on the market fulfills my needs like re-fuel."

Anthony's sponsors also include Body Glove, GoPro, MyGoMount, Gunther Rohn Surfboards, Dive'N'Surf, and Ocean & Earth. In addition to representing re-fuel and providing content, Anthony will also will help test and give feedback of new products and grow as the company grows.
