A great profile of the GOAT! #surfindustry
GROM to GOAT, thank you Kelly Slater. A heartfelt homage to Kelly Slater's legendary competitive career, created by filmmaker Taylor Steele. Kelly, from Grom to Goat, you’ve been a huge inspiration to us all. We asked our friend, Taylor Steele, to direct this video featuring some unforgettable moments in your unparalleled competitive career which continues to unfold today. Narrated by many of surfing’s legends who are equally in awe of the greatest of all time. Press the link below to shop the limited-edition 'Hey, Grom' collection from our friends at Outerknown which features tees and sweatshirts donning a photograph of young Kelly taken by photographer Tom Dugan, and hats featuring a graphic inspired by Taylor Steele's short film: Shop the collection: https://lnkd.in/g4h5ZRNB

Happy Birthday and a big congratulations to our friend Shaun Tomson for this recognition for global empowerment work! “Shaun Tomson’s journey and commitment to empowering others to lead more purposeful lives is an inspiration to us all. He has taken his message from the beach to the boardroom, into classrooms and yes – even jail, transforming lives at every step.” said Assemblywoman Davies. https://lnkd.in/gmwtYBJh #surfindustry

The 35th Annual Waterman's Gala was a tremendous success, marking yet another milestone in the ongoing efforts to unite the surf industry in the fight for ocean preservation. Since its founding in 1989, the Surf Industry Members Association (SIMA) has been dedicated to fostering the growth and unity of surf companies and the broader surfing community. This year's event continued that legacy, celebrating our shared passion for the ocean and raising vital funds for its protection. Executive Director Vipe Desai said it best: "Surfing is having a moment, all of us hold the responsibility to turn this moment into a movement. Onward and upward, together!" This year’s Waterman's Gala exemplified the surf community’s unwavering commitment to environmental protection and the spirit of camaraderie that has made this event so special. This year’s honorees included Nathan Florence, Waterperson of the Year, Gordon Merchant with a Lifetime Achievement Award and Vince Scandone as Environmentalist of the Year. Thanks to the generosity of our attendees and supporters, the SIMA Environmental Fund has now raised more than $10 million through the Waterman’s Gala, SIMA Industry Luau and the #SurfCleanOceans campaign. These funds will continue to support organizations that work tirelessly to protect our oceans, beaches, and waves. As our oceans face increasing threats, this collective effort is more important than ever. #surfindustry
