Clash Kiteboards by Alvaro Onieva, Forest Bakker and Petr Tyushkevich!
We here at CLASH are just a group of friends that have shared an immense passion for water sports since childhood. After years of working with other companies in the industry, we realized that they were way more concerned with profits than the product.
So, myself and a few others decided to establish a company that would be committed to eliciting feedback directly from the riders so that we could continue to offer them a superior product.
A few years later, it became impossible to continue ignoring the fact that the company was no longer representing the values it had initially been founded on, so I decided to take matters into my own hands. I took all of my remaining winnings left over from my competitive career and put it towards creating a company that would be fully dedicated to creating the best quality product at the best price possible.
We chose to bypass the distributors and retailers and instead develop the product ourselves and sell it directly to riders just like us.
So here we are today at last: a company headed by riders like myself who've poured all of our passion into creating the best possible product on the market, just for riders like you.
