The water sport industry is making waves with a recycling partnership.

Two years ago, co-founders Tim Niemier and Paul Hoyt came together in the midst of a disease to launch their idea on a crowdfunded campaign. In August of 2020, the campaign raised $3.8 million dollars. The 27th most successful campaign in the history of the watercraft industry was the Origami Paddler campaign.

The company's mission is to get a billion butts in boats on clean water. Ocean Legacy, a Canadian based non-profit organization, allows Origami Paddler to do something that has never been done before - turn plastic waste from the ocean into pieces and accessories for their boats.

For close to 40 years, I have worked to innovate water sports and have introduced millions of people to the water. Being in the water makes people aware of the importance of clean oceans and beaches. I feel that it is my responsibility as a business owner and a human to help keep our paddling environment clean than it was when we first started paddling there. The partnership makes recycling profitable and can be economically sustainable. I am excited to support the gathering of junk plastic from our beaches that could be recycled into paddles or other items to be used by paddlers who love the water they paddle in.

The water sports industry and the marine environment will be the focus of Ocean Legacy and Origami Paddler.

You can get your butt in a boat at the only place that sells it. You can invest in the future of the company by visiting invest.origamipaddler.com.
