A Swelling Market
In 2008, retail sales of surf equipment – boards, leashes, rash-guards, and so forth – surpassed $7.22 billion. In the US alone, there are over 5,000 surf shops, and globally there are more than 20 million recreational surfers. Despite its origins on isolated stretches of beach, surfing seems to have found its home online, and the new generic top-level domain (new gTLD) .SURF underlines that fact. Hotels, instructors, camps, travel services, equipment vendors, and lifestyle marketers are sure to flock to the domain. In addition, other action sports like wind-surfing will be sure to find .SURF domains relevant.
Making Waves
Polynesian surfers of the 18th century would hardly recognize the sport today, with its fiberglass boards and ultra-big-wave professional competitions, not to mention its online presence, surf forecasting technology, and viral videos.
The huge presence of the actual sport online means it’s almost easy to overlook the fact that for every person riding a wave, there are dozens of others whose surfing is strictly metaphorical. Web surfing, channel surfing, and couch surfing all fall into the realm of the new generic top-level domain (gTLD) .SURF and are sure to attract businesses and individuals alike.
