Astral announced it had signed pro surfer Garrett McNamara as a strategic advisor to the brand. McNamara will provide product testing, assist in product development and advise in marketing to saltwater users, including surfers, as the brand expands into that market.
“Garrett came into my focus when I lived, and surfed almost daily, in Indonesia from 2010/13,” said Astral Founder & CEO Philip Curry. “I realized that in the world of surfing, it was the big wave crowd that felt most similar to the family of whitewater athletes from where I came, and Astral was built.”
