Australian researchers found that children with cystic fibrosis that surfed had significantly healthier lungs. Doctors determined that inhaling saltwater mist has a powerful effect on re-hydrating the lining of the lungs, which allows individuals with cystic fibrosis to more easily eliminate life-threatening, bacteria-contaminated mucus. This discovery led researchers to develop a hyper tonic saline solution for individuals with cystic fibrosis around the world that mimics a ‘surf session’. We were approached by the local Orange County chapter for Cystic Fibrosis in 2010 with a simple donation request. 5 years later we are honored to be involved with ‘Pipeline to a Cure’, There is an annual gala event and live auction where we have an opportunity to offer custom Artist collaboration Surfboards boards along with guided tours in Costa Rica, featuring surf, golf and fishing.
