EpicSurf hosted a productive beach clean-up at Leonardo State Marina, NJ this month. 

This event was organised as part of EpicSurf’s commitment to social and environmental responsibility and aimed at raising awareness about the importance of preserving the natural beauty and cleanliness of our beaches for all.

It forms part of the company’s ‘Epic Promise‘ promise which addresses the company’s values, mission and promise to environmentally sustainable and people-focused practices.

The technology of EpicSurf is an award-winning deep wave surf product developed by Aquatic Development Group (ADG).

The EpicSurf beach clean-up consisted of over 15-plus employee volunteers spanning from all departments of the ADG organization. EpicSurf detail that representation from the company’s sales, marketing, design, engineering, manufacturing, construction and executive team were all in attendance during the rainy clean-up day. 

EpicSurf exclaimed that “regardless of the heavy rainfall and wind gusts, the team managed to collect over 5 bags of garbage on the beach collecting bottle caps, food containers, straws, plastics, and other waste items.”

“At the forefront of EpicSurf’s inception was the mission of developing an accessible and sustainable surf experience for all abilities. Built with green building materials, energy efficient flow system, and a drain dry safety system to mitigate water evaporation – we are proud to bring this product to the growing man-made surf industry around the world,” said Julie Kline, Marketing Manager of ADG & EpicSurf.

“Although this one beach clean-up will not change the world – we hope to set an example for other groups and organizations to join in the initiatives of protecting their beaches and preserving our natural resources and community!”

Meanwhile, Bruce Quay, COO of ADG & EpicSurf, added: “Our long history of creating exceptional projects with industry leading clients has been built on a foundation of great people – we have an exceptional group of people at our company. 

“Individually and as a team, they not only excel in delivering the highest quality products, projects and customer service, they are dedicated to giving back to the community.”

“As the world’s leader in wave systems technology for over 50+ years, innovation is in our DNA. The same creative thinking used to innovate and advance our technologies also helps us to constantly explore new ways to minimize our impact on the planet – all while still delivering the same level of fun!”

The EpicSurf beach clean-up was the first clean-up event of the organization.

But with a headquarters based in Upstate NY, the company plans to find ways to give back to the many local water sources in the Capital region in the near future.
