What do you get when you cross a surfer with an entrepreneur? You get someone who mixes business with pleasure.
Look at that smile. Did it just make you smile? That’s what surfing does for everyone, it makes you smile.

Dave Bock didn’t intend on Earthpack being an “environmental” company. He saw a void in the packaging market that recycled materials could replace. Through this learning he saw the advantages of using recycled materials which gave him an edge with his competition, but more importantly, he realized the benefits it had on the environment and ocean that he loves to surf in.
