ABOUT US

Our Story

ELUDE was founded in Santa Barbara, California, driven by the need for better surf gear options. It seemed like the only choices were either cheap products from companies that didn't understand the needs of real surfers, or overpriced products from large corporate brands. ELUDE offers a better alternative by combining affordable prices with the high level of quality that dedicated surfers expect from their gear.

Our Difference

By selling directly to customers online, we eliminate the retail markup that traditional surf brands have. Our lean operation includes a small team, simple product packaging, and minimal marketing expenses. All theses factors allow us to offer more affordable prices. As a smaller company, we're also able to provide personalized customer service and respond quickly to all emails and social media inquiries.
