Boardriders Inc. Announces Memorial Dates for CEO Pierre Agnes

Boardriders, Inc. is announcing several memorial ceremonies to celebrate the life of Pierre Agnes.

The company will honor Pierre’s memory by hosting traditional paddle-out ceremonies around the world for their beloved friend and surfing visionary. During this cherished surfing ritual, surfers paddle out into the ocean and link hands to create a floating circle of solidarity.

Dave Tanner, CEO of Boardriders, Inc. said: “Pierre loved the beauty of the ocean, and lived his life on the water as a surfer and waterman. There is no more fitting way for us to celebrate and honor Pierre’s life than with a paddle-out. We welcome all who knew and loved Pierre to join us and remember a man taken too soon.”

The Australia paddle-out will be in Queensland on March 13, 2018 at 4 p.m. near the Quiksilver Pro Gold Coast event at Snapper Rocks. The U.S. paddle-out will be in Huntington Beach, California, on March 16, 2018 at 9:30 a.m. near the Huntington Beach Pier. A paddle-out in France will be scheduled later this spring.
