Rip Curl NZ

Welcome to Rip Curl NZ, nestled in the heart of Otago, where surf culture meets coastal charm. Since our humble beginnings, we've been more than just a clothing specialty retailer; we're a lifestyle embodiment, a testament to the enduring spirit of the sea and the vibrant energy it evokes. Our journey began on the shores of Bells Beach in Australia, where two passionate surfers, Brian Singer and Doug Warbrick, shared their love for the ocean and created Rip Curl in 1969. Over five decades later, we've brought that same spirit to New Zealand, offering a unique blend of surf gear, apparel, wetsuits, boardshorts, and bikinis that embody our ethos: 'The Search for the Ultimate Wave'. At Rip Curl NZ, we believe in quality craftsmanship, innovation, and sustainability. Our collections are meticulously designed to withstand the unpredictable Kiwi coastline while staying true to our commitment to environmental responsibility. From our eco-friendly wetsuits made from recycled materials to our boardshorts crafted for performance and style, each piece in our store is a testament to our dedication to delivering exceptional products that don't compromise on quality or the environment. Step into our store, and you'll be greeted by a friendly team of surf enthusiasts who share your passion for the ocean. We're more than just retail assistants; we're fellow surfers, adventurers, and locals eager to help you find the perfect gear for your next wave or beachside escape. Whether you're a seasoned surfer looking for the latest in performance gear, a casual beachgoer seeking stylish apparel, or a newcomer to the surf scene eager to learn more, Rip Curl NZ is your go-to destination. Come join us on this incredible journey, where every day is another opportunity to embrace the sea, live the surf lifestyle, and celebrate our shared love for the ocean.
