Article Abstract:

Every year, thousands of surfers are attracted to the forty-kilometer coastline from Hossegor to the Spanish border, bringing along with them, the world's leading surf wear brands. The biggest challenge for the three leading Australian surf wear companies, Quicksilver, Rip Curl and Billabong, is to continue to ride the wave of popular interest in surf wear in Europe while remaining true to their core customers, surfers and snowboarders who are likely to spurn a mass-market brand.
