Pride Bodyboards was founded in 1999 with the vision of pushing European bodyboarding to the forefront of the global scene. Initially based out of a small workshop in Biarritz, France, Pride quickly grew due to its commitment to quality and innovation. By collaborating with top athletes and experienced shapers, such as Nick Mesritz, Pride became known for its high-performance boards, catering to both amateurs and professionals. Today, Pride Bodyboards is a leader in the international bodyboarding industry, renowned for its sustainable innovations and support for global competitions, including the IBA Pipeline contest.
