OUR STORY

BROQ International was founded by a crew of passionate surfers from Florida. Since catching our first waves in the late eighties, we’ve been chasing that same thrill ever since. Growing up on the Gulf of Mexico, we faced fickle beach breaks and had only about a hundred rideable days a year. Despite these challenges, we made the most of every wave, adopting a “Go for BROQ” mentality.

Our surf trips were humble, often involving early morning drives to Florida’s east coast for modest waves. Over the years, we’ve gone to great lengths to surf in Florida’s unpredictable conditions. Though we’ve grown up, pursued careers, and started families, surfing remains a constant in our lives. We’ll never stop. Go for BROQ.

OUR VISION

BROQ International was founded by a crew of Florida surfers. Our journey began in the late eighties when we first felt the thrill of catching waves as Grommets. That excitement never left us, and we’ve been chasing it ever since, planning to keep the passion alive for the rest of our lives.

Our surfing roots are humble. We didn’t grow up near famous surf spots like Pipeline or Bells Beach. Instead, our backyard was the Gulf of Mexico, with its unpredictable beach breaks. We only had about a hundred days of rideable surf each year, mostly small waves. While others hoped for perfect conditions, we made the best of what we had, driving to Florida’s east coast for better waves whenever we could. Despite the challenges, we’ve always embraced a “Go for BROQ” mentality, making the most of every wave and every moment.
