biggest turnout since 2005. This year the event took place January 12-14th and offered the chance to sneak a peek at over 2,500 brands for the summer and fall 2012 lines.
There were catwalks with bikini clad girls, and fashion shows three times a day, skate competitions on the street course and quarter pipe even a standup paddle tank on the show floor to try before you buy.
A word from Surf Expo Show Director Roy Turner:
"Our show was bursting at the seams with exhibitors and buyers - all in a positive mood and doing business on the floor. From the minute we opened the doors until the show closing, there was an energy that I haven't seen in years. The positive vibe at Surf Expo shows an industry headed in the right direction as it continues to rebound after the recession."
