We keep hearing how strong business has been for the surf and skate industry in Australia, so we reached out to several retailers in different parts of the country to ask them about how their stores have fared during the pandemic.

How have sales during the pandemic gone?
Mike Di Sciascio: Initially sales fell off the cliff when COVID hit and it was looking really bad when the first lockdown happened, we rebounded though as while many sports were shut down you could still go surfing! As all the effects of no travel, working from home and home schooling kicked in, we got even busier and have ended up being really busy.
