Rip Curl are pioneering wetsuit recycling through their Project Resurrection, giving old unused wetsuits a new lease of life. As part of an ongoing promotion showcasing the Rip Curl Planet Foundation initiatives throughout April the Newquay store is calling on all surfers and wetsuit owners to search their garages and basements for their old neoprene and bring them into the store to be crushed into Resurrection Rubber.
Rip Curl will be offering pairs of Project Resurrection sandals in return for all wetsuits brought into the Newquay store between 10am to 6pm on Saturday 2nd May 2009.
In addition there will also be a screening of the new surf film from Relentless Energy: Relentless Revolution – Powers of Three which features Rip Curl surfer, and Eco Ambassador, Tom Lowe, a live band in-store, a free Rip Curl Planet Pack giveaway with every in-store purchase, a chance to meet the pro team, and a very special Rip Curl SEARCH WCT event announcement direct from Rip Curl headquarters in Australia.
