Surf Trip: Wisconsin

Wisconsin, you welcomed us like one of your own. Genuine people that immediately turned into friendships and sharing the stoke out in the water🤙🏼

We knew where we wanted to go and what to do - but the outcome seems so surreal, it was kismet.

Before even checking into our place, we knew we had to stop at Lake Effect Surf Shop. See what that had, but to also appreciate the space and the culture that came with it. The owner, Jake was also there - we got to chatting and we recognized the amount of respect he has for his locals and his surf scene he brought to the Atwater area - even giving us a few key tips when getting into the water. While this was happening, ironically Dylan Brudny was there capturing this key moment for all of us.

That next day, driving up the coast - making little pit stops along the way to see the waves, we got the boards out and ready to ride in Sheboygan. What a solid morning out on the water. Seeing about 20 surfers out there just made us more stoked! Meeting some new faces, connecting with ones we’ve only chatted with via social media, and also running into some of our fave Michiganders Josiah and Ellyn - it made jumping off the pier to riding every party wave together that much better.

We then caught up with our buddy Andrew over at EOS Surf Shop - checked out his space and chatted about all the upcoming things we’re lining up - it was a huge moment for us. (big things coming soon!)

Connecting with people that share the same stoke as you is a great feeling. This is an anniversary / business trip that made a forever impact on us. Can’t wait to go back.
