The Lineup with Dave Prodan - A Surfing Podcast

This week Patagonia Wetsuit Team members Buddy Pendergast and Mackenzie Warner join The Lineup to talk about the new Fall wetsuit coming out. They discuss how this wetsuit is the biggest overhaul in over a decade and the culmination of years of research, design, and development, and how they are trying to change the wetsuit industry with sustainable materials like natural rubber. They dive into the Patagonia ethos about producing the best possible wetsuits and products to avoid product churn and waste and also sharing their technology with the entire industry. Then Mackenzie and Buddy describe their work within Patagonia and personal relationships with the brand before taking part in the Lightning Round.
