Hadi Beydoun is a young libanese who grew up in Ivory Coast.

In this episode, we discuss what Smart Leash Co stands for, Dan's prior experience in the surf industry, and how that has supported his work with his own company, and getting Dan's brand into some of the world's most recognizable surf shops.

One of the biggest issues in surfing is the water that always finds a way into your ears, causing hearing problems, infections and other inconveniences. Today we talk with the man who came up with a product to solve this problem. 

In this episode of Surfpreneurs Podcast, the host Peter Fabor talks with Christian Dittrich, the founder of SurfEars. This company from Sweden creates earplugs that not only block water from coming into your ears but also let you hear the outside world. With over 120.000 SurfEars sold to this date, it’s proven to be an excellent product.

In this episode, I'm going to interview Alexandra Gossink from I love The Seaside. Alexandra with her team has a small publishing company that makes travel surf books.

In the second Surfpreneurs podcast James interviewed Jack Candlish from Organic Dynamic.

They discussed how Jack started this kiwi surfboard brand as a side project and how it later a while became his full-time job.
