As Rusty’s sur fboard sales grew, and becam e globally recognized as one of the best sur fboard manufact ures in the world. A small line of tee’s and boardshor ts star ted to snowball into something bigger. Rusty clothing soon became bigger than the bo ards. A company with a big presence and a big personality, Rusty is irreverent and constantly pushing the boundaries from a board spor t and fashion standpoint. Whilst the brand is true to its sur fing roots, its fo r ward focused product (and history in skate and snow) allows Rusty not to be pigeonholed as ‘just sur f ’, at trac ting a variety of different subcult ures towards the brand, in t urn allowing for greater grow th potential and ensuring the brand never appears illegitimate within any one given cult ure.

Within the Global sur f market the majority of the br ands will at tempt to anchor themselves to a key at tribute of sur f, skate or snow cult ure in an at tempt to appear legitimate and credible amongst their target Customers. In Rusty’s case, the brands heritage and reputation as one of the worlds leading sur fboard manufact urers affords for it’s TRUE AUTHENTICITY. Sur fing, Music & Ar t make up our brands DNA. Remaining modern youthful and progressive has been key to our brands success. Staying on trend and relevant at all times. The brand has al ways prided itself on its roster of marque athletes and brand ambassado rs and currently hosts 3 of the IT personalities of the current times being top ten finisher on the world sur f league tour Josh Kerr, the best and highest ranked free sur fer Noa Deane and Mimi Elashiry who is one of the most famous instagram bloggers within our market.

He’s sitting amongst the pecking order in the line up, he’s the one gathering the boys to attend the local music festival, he’s the one who adapts to early trends without being a victim. He has a good sense of humor and is always up for a laugh be it hanging jive on his friends or even doing a nudie run to cannon ball into the pool out his mates house par ty. He has a cool haircut; he shops at thrift stores picking up the odd vinyl or vintage tee. He’s no tree hugger but is environmentally aware, will pick up rubbish rather than walk over it.

He leaves a social media foot print, he tags in his location of where he’s sur fing, skating, rockin out, he doesn’t post self motivation sayings he post his good times, empty barrels, the odd shot of himself 2 feet above the lip and makes sure when ever his posse are doing something abnormal and humorous he post that and gives his followers a laugh.

Rusty social media is consistently on the grow and bases its self over Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Pintrest, Rusty works closely with athletes and ambassadors to help promote product and lifestyle via their channels.

She sits side by side with the Rusty guy, they share similar out looks on life. She’s down to ear th and approachable, think the girl next door with a few hidden secrets. She has a devout love of the ocean and may surf, yet isn’t her chosen lifestyle, beach loving babe and when her man comes in from a surf she will pick his board up and catch a few herself. She is par t tom boy, par t beach bum, cheeky with a polite smile, open minded and is naturally cool. She’s the girl who always has lots of guy friends and hangs in a tight knit group of both genders. She loves a summer festival, enjoying rockin out, having laughs with her posse and it’s a good excuse to wear her bikini out with a pair of cut off denims and some leather boots. Always scrolling thru the Internet checking the latest blogs, following the “it” instagram bloggers. She has created her own social media foot print posting everything from beach days, summer festivals, her loveable dog, latest purchases and has built enough followers that she gets the odd piece gifted from companies to promote. She stands up for her beliefs and regards her self as an individual, she’s got something special about her and people are magnetize towards her, she knows it but doesn’t create it and just goes with the flow gives a cheeky wink, loving smile and open arms as everyone is her bestie.

“ OUR KIND LIVE IN BOARDIES “ the legend, but no myth Rusty Priesendorfer is a surfer & has dedicated his life to shaping boards. Shaping boards was always an excuse for more time in the water or what Rusty calls R & D, never one to let work get in the way of pumping waves. Rusty has been making boards with the infamous R Dot logo on since 1985 and as Rusty soon discovered on his R & D trips he needed to have a comfortable & durable pair of board shorts as he was getting 3rd degree burns in places that medical practitioners had never seen before. Out of sheer necessity and an abundant of

shorts. Rusty has been in the board short game for some time now, we make boardies for surfers not pool ponies. Our board shorts are as techniqual as the next, how many times can you come up for a word to describe 4 way stretch, water repellent or quick dry materials? We will let the others try and out tech each other, but we will let you in on a little secret…. Just keep on the down low…. We have some of the most technically advanced board shorts on the market, but we don’t blow ing a technical board short that meets and exceeds our competition… If you have read the above or just skipped to this part

Welcome to METAL ALOHA.....Now GO HOME.

Our Surf culture’s existence is the essence of juxtapositions, with a party all night and surf all day attitude. To surf the gnarliest death defying waves you can…. With a smile. Surfers want to be rocks stars & rocks stars want to be

two and you have a fresh direction that hasn’t been seen before. METAL ALOHA is a new initiative from Rusty being launched for Spring 2015 and will evolve season- to- season categories as we look to present a story that is uniquely Rusty. METAL ALOHA is going global with a simultaneous world- wide launch, it will be Rusty’s primary marketing direction encompassing all print, social media and instore mediums.

METAL ALOHA is going make some Fu#kin noise, politely.
