The market players had to navigate disruptions in manufacturing and distribution, as well as shifts in consumer preferences. To mitigate the impact, businesses focused on engaging with the local community through online tutorials, fitness programs, and awareness campaigns about responsible outdoor activities. As restrictions eased, the market seized the opportunity to promote surfing as a safe and invigorating way to reconnect with the ocean and nature.
