MEET SEBASTIAN MENDES

Posted by IPD International on

On our ambassador page, you can get a brief overview of our complete roster of rippers and learn a little more about them. With over 75+ ambassadors between surf and skate, there’s someone from all sorts of different corners of the globe, and when you tap on one of them you can learn a little more about them thanks to a little Q&A the marketing team cooked up. We are going to spotlight a couple on the blog along with some content they’ve created, and first up is Bash Mendes. A well-known surfer from the Valley of Los Angeles, Bash is a goofy footer with a wicked backhand and even better attitude on life. Just the perfect mix for IPD.Here’s how he answered our little questionnaire:
