SURF SCHOOL
DESIGNED AND TESTED IN THE NORTH ATLANTIC SINCE 1963
INTRODUCTION
Tiki’s story is remarkable. Tim Heyland and Dave Aldrich-Smith’s route into surfing are a thing of legend via Hawaii, Brazil, draft dodging in California in the 1960’s. Their colourful paths brought them eventually to Braunton in North Devon to set-up a surfboard shaping business and surf shop. With Dave’s contacts in California they were able to secure the licenses to produce the likes of Bing, G&S and Weber in the UK and before long were selling boards as fast as they could make them. Tiki remains the UK’s leading homegrown surf company, with sales in countries around the world. We continue to remain close to our roots, designing and developing cold water surf gear.
The Tiki team features some of the world’s and UK’s best athletes. These guys are out every day, testing our equipment and providing valuable feedback. Shown top right are: Andrew Cotton. One of the world’s best big wave surfers. Barry Mottershead. XXL nominee and cold water charger. Rohan Inglis. Bodyboard legend, famed for going harder than anyone whether in the water or out. Damian Warner. Winner of the NSP Rider Search, Winner of the National Watersports SUP race. George Dufty. 2013 BKSA Freestyle Kitesurfing champion. European champ contender.

The Tiki ADV is the benchmark product for the Outdoors and Adventure sector. 2015 is the 11th year in production. Much imitated, never matched See the wetsuits section for full details and codes
The ADV-S is a modified version of the ADV designed specifically for surf hire or surf school use. For less abrasive uses, such as surf lessons, certain features of the ADV have been removed - the Duratech seat. See the wetsuits section for full details and codes
REPAIR SERVICE We are one of the few wetsuit brands that actually made wetsuits in the UK before the advent of Far Eastern production. We retain a lot of the skills and machinery required to make our prototypes, but also the ability to repair wetsuits. We can’t promise that these suits will not suffer damage, given the extreme nature of the usage, but we can offer a repair service if they do.

A wetsuit should always be tried on before purchase.
Note, different thickness wetsuits will feel a little different. If you are between sizes, go up.
These measurements should be used as guidelines only.
A wetsuit should always be tried on before purchase.
The fit of a wetsuit is the most important factor. A bad fitting wetsuit will be uncomfortable and if allows water in, will be cold.
