This summer, we recognized Gordon Merchant, the founder of Billabong, with the SIMA Lifetime Achievement Award. His impact on surfing not only shaped a worldwide industry but also opened doors for countless surfers, which is why people say “only a surfer knows the feeling.” Though Gordon couldn’t be there to accept the award himself because of a family emergency, our beloved Aussie and World Surfing Champion, Peter Townend, handed it to him in person this week. #surfindustryy
