Rant - How a Surf Vacation Led to a New Niche in Women's Swimwear

I always find it inspiring when someone quits their BS corporate job and becomes and entrepreneur. Even more so to quit > surf full-time > then become an entrepreneur. Props to her.

Their web site is not too shabby. I don't believe there's a bikini out there that will stay on in surf, but if I start feeling like I might want to blind the rest of the beach with my whiteness, I'll consider their bikinis for a surf trip. That and some industrial strength sunblock.

Neat!!!! I like how she takes things like no pressure on the neck into consideration.

Plus, the fierce line would go well with my sea hair.

I love the look of the Fierce, but pretty much I wasted my money on it: http://surfergrrrl.blogspot.com/2012/01/wipeout-proof-bikini-review.html

Have to admit I'm jealous of her life path, though.

@surfergrrrl - You should sent your comments to her (if you haven't already). I'm sure she'd appreciate your feedback. And who knows, maybe she'll get you a replacement or have you try out some other models.

I love what she is trying to do but I also have yet to find bikini bottoms that I'm not constantly pulling up or pulling out of my @sscrack and the only tops that are surf friendly are more of the sports bra styled ones and even then, things happen. I don't think a surf friendly bikini exists either. Yet.

Eh, @Purpeana, it's way too long past my purchase date to be complaining about it to the company now. Too bad I didn't get to surf test the suit until a few months after I bought it.
