This partnership is about more than just a sticker on a surfboard. It's a massive milestone for everyone involve. A modern, founder-led brand teaming up with one of the most respected surfers in the water. “Obviously I wouldn’t be doing this if I didn’t believe in it. To be a part of this and to be able to help it grow into what it can become and will become, the sky is the limit. And to be part owner and team rider in that, that is amazing. To be a part of Rivvia Projects growing and to be able to mould it and shape it, is crazy exciting.” — Ryan Callinan “Ryan is the epitome of what Rivvia Projects is about and what it stands for. His reputation not only in the water but on land speaks for itself. I’m so proud to have him represent Rivvia Projects as a team rider and a part owner. It’s a milestone moment for the brand. To have our first team rider rocking the VV sticker on the world tour is so exciting…and I plan to join him there next year and make it 2 of us” — Julian Wilson
