We are a stand up paddle brand, we are a lifestyle brand, we are racers, we are surfers, we are anglers, we are industry leaders, and we are technical innovators. The technical innovations are what allow us to stand apart. From designing the world's first fishing specific stand up board to creating a proprietary carbon/innegra weave, BOTE continues to push stand up paddle boarding forward. These innovations allow our customers to paddle faster, further, and with purpose.
From our humble beginnings over 25 years ago in the sleepy coastal town of Santa Cruz
to becoming a globally recognized brand, we have never lost sight of who we are and what
we do.
We are part of a global community of surfers, shapers, designers, and craftsman
who are connected through surfing and the pursuit of perfection. We take pride in every
board we make and celebrate the millions of waves around the world that have been
ridden and look forward to being a part of the lineup for years to come.
We are Surftech, The Original Board Manufacturing Company, and We Live For This.
SURF. PADDLE. EXPLORE
These three words define us as a company and keep us excited and inspired to start every new day on the water. We believe surfing and paddling are the best forms of recreation in the world and are focused on these sports only.
