❄️🌊🌸 The OisF’s East Coast Cold Water Challenger: Doug Bard ❄️🌊🌸

In this challenge, we set out to shine a spotlight on our community’s treasured water people, and Doug Bard is one of them! A welcoming presence and a familiar, friendly face in the lineup (especially in the winter) is so sacred to the spirit and culture of our surf community; in and out of the water, Doug has become our unofficial, local ambassador for kindness.

As the front man of @the_wave_tape, Doug uses his platform as a vehicle for goodness. Whether he is volunteering his time, or donating a portion of his @the_wave_tape sales to organizations like @surfershealing , @fulfill_nj , @marysplacebythesea - Doug is an ocean-inspired inventor, a dedicated family man, a consistent surfer and a relentless giver. As we enter into the home stretch of “The OisF’s East Coast Cold Water Challenge,” we would like to acknowledge, celebrate and thank people like @thegooddaysurfer/ #thetapedude for all the ways you represent what it means to #bearipple. 🤙🏽🌊🌸❄️

There is a reason they call it fishing, not catching.

There is a reason they call it packing, not taping.

Why?

I don’t know, I just made this up.

But if I had to guess… it’s because the key to finding fulfillment in life comes from eliminating frustrations where you can and finding joy in the process of whatever you’re doing.

So, forget your worries and just go fishing!
And if you’re packing %#^* up, skip the hassle get @the_wave_tape.

That’s all. That’s the post.

Bringing a product to market can be hard…
but your packing tape should be easy!

I had a blast speaking with Stephen M. Key from @inventright, where we break down the process of what it’s really like to bring an idea from concept to consumer.

Thank you @inventright for shining a light on @the_wave_tape. Catch the full interview. (Link In BIO)
