Sector 9 Longboards

The small company that was started in San Diego in 1993 has now become a massive company. Sector 9 longboards was started by a group of skater friends that were given a small investment by their parents to get started. What an investment that turned out to be. The past year Sector 9 did over 100-million dollars in sales! Not bad for a small start up investment of around 10,000 dollars.

Sector 9 longboard company also was just recently acquired by Billabong who owns nearly half of the skate and surf industry companies these days. Sector 9 really has progressed over the years in growth and they also have progressed in the style and performance of their longboards. The boards now incorporate fully laminated bamboo layers and things like fiberglass and carbon fiber to add flexibility which allows for great turning capabilities. Sector 9 really is ahead of the pack in the longboard industry.
