Just last week, Santa Barbara goofyfoot Parker Coffin dropped an edit serving as a farewell letter to his longtime sponsor Roark. “This is a video dedicated to everybody at Roark,” wrote Parker in the opening minutes of the short. “Thank you for believing in me and giving me the opportunity to be a part of your brand for the last 5 years. Thank you for once-in-a-lifetime experiences all over the world alongside an epic crew. I learned a ton, saw new places and made memories that will last a lifetime.”
Just yesterday, Coffin made an official IG announcement that he joined the Body Glove family alongside his brother Conner.
“I am honored to announce that I have joined the @bodyglove team,” writes Coffin in his post. “In 1953 Bill and Bob Meistrell started the brand to keep people in the water for longer… 70 years later, with decades of product innovations and the philosophy of doing what you love, Body Glove remains dedicated to supporting peoples passions. My brother and I are incredibly grateful to be supported by the brand and what they stand for. I look forward to continuing the tradition of doing what I love and loving what I’m doing. Thank you to the Meistrell family for your dedication to the world of surfing/diving for generations.”
