BRUCE BEACH, LUKE EGAN AND OTHERS INTRODUCE NEW SURF ADVENTURE BRAND

San Clemente, CA (July 7th, 2014) — Co-founders Bruce Beach and Luke Egan are set to launch DEPACTUS at the Agenda Trade Show in Long Beach, California on July 10th, 2014.

DEPACTUS is a new surf brand built for adventure. The brand will make performance- driven boardshorts, waterproof technical shells, and a premium range of utilitarian gear that takes you from land to sea, all with iconic styling to stand the test of time.

DEPACTUS is a technical outfitter for surfing’s modern youth. It aims to provide a wardrobe in a backpack — premium essentials for down the road or around the world.

DEPACTUS Men of Extraordinary Pursuits (MEP’s) include Mark Healey, Matt Meola, Ry Craike and shaper Chris Christenson. Each represents the DEPACTUS mission and values through their surfing, diving, fishing, hunting, and a unique sense of timeless style. The DEPACTUS brand story will be told through their adventures on land and sea, outfitted with quality products that ensure the experience never suffers.
