Venture Description

Leah Surf is a brand focused on inclusivity for outdoor recreation, starting with a women’s wetsuit. Many surf products overlook women’s bodies and needs, often offering poor fit around the shoulders or torso, or quality that doesn’t match men’s options. I’ve heard from many women who want exactly what I’m building, and I’m excited to deliver that. By combining my background in engineering, materials, and human movement with input from women surfers, I’m designing a wetsuit that improves the industry standard. The goal is to help more people experience the peace and joy that comes from being in nature, whether in the water or outdoors.
