QUIKSILVER

Quiksilver has become far more than just a fashion apparel company. It is a company with deep roots in the history of the demanding outdoor sports lifestyle... In 1969, two Torquay locals, Alan Green and John Law, turned to making boardshorts in their home garage based on what they saw as a market opportunity. Authenticity, innovation, pride, confidence and a belief in limitless potential have been the foundations in Quiksilver becoming the largest and most prestigious apparel company in the action outdoor sports industry... Boardriders, Inc. (NYSE:ZQK) is the world's leading outdoor sports lifestyle company, designing, producing and distributing a diversified mix of branded apparel, wintersports and golf equipment, footwear, accessories and related products.
