“We wanted a design that highlighted the beauty and power of womanhood in surf,” Textured Waves, the all female, African American led surf collective, told us. “This design, created in collaboration with artist Tierney Moses, illustrates the different shapes and shades we come in, all coming together to make a harmonious statement, whether on land or at sea.”

Textured Waves was created in 2019 by Danielle Black Lyons, Chelsea Woody and Martina Duran, and aims to propagates the culture and sport of women’s surfing towards women of color and underrepresented demographics
