Brands Supporting Brands: How To Fuel A Movement

Forget the glitzy, corporate-sponsored contests. Forget the endless parade of logo-laden jerseys. Forget the pressure-cooker atmosphere where the only currency is sales. Surf Re-Evolution is different. It's a gathering, a celebration—a defiant middle finger to the status quo of corporations. Here, in the charming coastal town of York, Maine, a movement takes center stage. It's a movement propelled by a deep love for the ocean and a fierce determination to protect it, as it is our most cherished ecological resource as surfers. 

But this annual wave wouldn't crest without the support of a special kind of sponsor. And no, they aren't the check-wielding giants with environmental records as murky as a post-storm lineup. Surf Re-Evolution partners with revolutionaries of the surf and sustainability world. Brands like The Momentum, Parley for the Oceans, Outerknown, and Finisterre are the forerunners, the ones who are redefining what it means to ride a wave and tread lightly on the planet.

Sure, sponsorships provide the fuel that keeps Surf Re-Evolution afloat. Curating the venue, bringing in inspiring speakers, and creating a space for DIY workshops…it all adds up. But, the sponsors who support this event see beyond the bottom line. They see a community. They see a chance to connect with a passionate audience who shares their commitment to a better future.

These partners aren't just slapping their logos on a banner and calling it a day. They're active participants in the movement. They showcase their cutting-edge innovations: sustainable surfboards shaped with bio-resins or wetsuits crafted from recycled materials. These are just a glimpse into a future where shredding and stewardship go hand-in-hand.

But the most radical part? Surf Re-Evolution sponsors are more than just event backers. They're established players who understand the power of fostering the desire in small business owners to keep moving the needle toward sustainability. Thanks to their support, Surf Re-Evolution can offer free vendor booths. This creates a platform for the up-and-coming small businesses with big ideas. Here, they can showcase their creations, spread their message, and connect with a community ready to embrace change

At the helm of Surf Re-Evolution 2024 are Grain Surfboards and The Momentum. Grain is passionate about crafting beautiful, high-performance wooden surfboards designed to last a lifetime—a stark contrast to the environmentally harmful industry norms dominated by petroleum bi-products. They're all about the DIY spirit, encouraging a collaborative approach to healing the planet.

The Momentum complements Grain's mission perfectly. As a publisher dedicated to "All Sustainability, All The Time" content, they're core and stoked to be part of Surf Re-Evolution’s growing tradition. Together, they create a space where community, craftsmanship, and ocean-minded living collide, fueling a movement for positive change.

Surf Re-Evolution is a testament to the power of collaboration. Sponsors aren't just fueling the event; they're fueling a movement.
