Founded by award winning SUP and Surf industry veterans—Phillip Rainey and Gretchen Gamble—Sprout grew from a desire to create a different kind of Stand Up Paddle company. We wanted to start something creative, inventive, focused and unique. Driven to design innovative, intelligent, inspirational products, we set out to create a brand that is a community of like minded people – water loving, outdoor adventure seekers committed to helping protect and sustain our environment. Sprout encompasses things that we hold dear: our pursuit of excellence in design, our spirit of adventure and our love for the planet that we have the privilege of calling our home and our playground.
