The Story of Sitka:
The name Sitka derives from the Sitka Spruce, a tree naturally drawn to the shorelines of Western Canada the company Sitka grew from the same endeavor. The seed was sown in the fall of 2002 when two Canadian surfers, Rene Gauthier and Andrew Paine, with their shared passion and vision for making surfboards, decided to take their hobby out of the garage and offer a new option to the local surfing population.

Sitka Surfboards was born. Since that time the company has grown drastically and now offers a complete surfboard, skateboard, and clothing line for men and women.

As the popularity of the brand grew over the years, Sitka has come to represent and attract a wide network of like-minded individuals drawn to the same passions and lifestyle as the founders. Sitka, in turn, has germinated into an exceptionally unique brand that not only represents the lifestyle that is shared by its creators, but appeals to a wide range of people.
