About Eisbach Riders

We ride for clean waves, lasting gear, and a planet worth surfing.

Born on the river, built for the ocean — Eisbach Riders creates sustainable surf and SUP gear that performs, lasts, and gives back.

Made in Germany. Surfed worldwide.

Eisbach Riders Founders with River Surf Fin – Munich

Our Journey Began in 2018

Eisbach Riders was founded in 2018 by Michael and Robin, two friends who met on the standing waves of the Eisbach River in Munich.

Between early-morning surf sessions and frozen fingers, a shared idea took shape: to create gear that could handle the rough reality of river surfing — and do better for the planet at the same time.

What started as small-batch prototypes in a basement has grown into a community-driven brand trusted by surfers and paddlers all over Europe.

Made in Germany

Our fins are developed and produced in southern Germany using advanced injection-molding technology.

Our fins are made from recycled waste material from the car industry, reducing both plastic waste and our carbon footprint — without compromising on performance or durability.

We believe there’s already enough plastic in the world — we just need to use it smarter.

Designed by Surfers, for Surfers

Years of riding rivers taught us one thing: traditional surf gear wasn’t made for standing waves.

Broken fins, cracked gear, endless replacements — it all added up, both for our wallets and the environment.

So we built something better.

Durable. Affordable. Sustainable.

Designed to perform in rivers, lakes, and oceans — made to last through every session.

Giving Back — 1% for the Planet

Eisbach Riders is proud to be a member of 1% for the Planet, committing at least 1% of our annual revenue to organizations protecting our oceans and environment.

It’s our way of ensuring that every wave ridden gives something back to the planet that makes it possible.
