Best Practices

• •Immerse in the Culture: Continuously engage with surf culture – watch surf films, follow surfers and related accounts, read surf magazines/blogs. This helps keep the language authentic and current.
• •Use Surf-Specific Vernacular (Authentically): Incorporate common surf slang and terminology naturally, without overdoing it or forcing it where it doesn't fit. Authenticity is key; avoid sounding like an outsider trying too hard.
• •Focus on "Feeling" and "Experience": Copy should evoke the sensations of surfing – the thrill of a good wave, the peace of being in the ocean, the camaraderie. Use sensory language.
• •Maintain a Conversational, Passionate Voice: Write as if you're talking to a fellow surfer. Let the genuine enthusiasm for the sport shine through. Keep it relatively informal and approachable.
• •Visual-Text Congruence: Ensure the copy always aligns with the accompanying visuals. If the image is high-action, the copy can be more energetic. If it's a serene ocean landscape, the copy can be more reflective, but always tied back to the core "Always Wet" surf identity.
