Finding a Surf Sponsor has never been easier

Any surfer who is serious about competitive surfing will tell you that having surfing sponsors is the only way to move forward. It is a sponsor that will help with new equipment, funding travel costs, providing coaching and being there as an industry support. Without a sponsor talent surfers struggle. Up until now, a surfer had to promote themselves, send out stacks of resumes and DVDs to sponsorship managers and rely on their own business smarts. Unfortunately if you didn’t have the time, funds, know how or an inside contact often your resume application to sponsorship managers wouldn’t even make it to their in tray. Now thanks to SurfSpono.com, this is no longer the case.

Finally after 12 months of research, much consolation with top surf company decision makers and a wide range of competitive surfers from local grommets to former world champions, the future of surf sponsorship is here.

SurfSpono concept designer Shan Railton when asked what inspired SurfSpono had this to say “Our agency has worked with a number of top surfers over the years and as a result we get emails and calls from talented surfers wanting help with finding sponsors all the time.” Commented Railton “We kept saying we would love to help them all, once internet technology progressed we saw an opportunity to do this and this lead to the creation of SurfSpono.com.” “Our management agency Vantage Management already had contact with hundreds of sponsorship managers worldwide, we now just have a way to put talented surfers in front of them without harassing them. Sponsorship managers love the idea as it means they can check out surfing talent in one place knowing that each resume will be properly presented and they can contact surfers as required.”
