Andre Niemeyer

Publisher

 

Andre Niemeyer is the man fueling the passion for stand up paddling and our publication. With a strong background in competitive surfing, he has placed 3rd in the State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and has also competed for UCSD's surf team. In the winter of 2005-6, his friend Rick Thomas introduced him to stand up paddle boarding and Niemeyer has been hooked since then. In fact, shortly after picking up the sport, he became sponsored by the world's first SUP-dedicated shop, Bob Mission's Surf Shop, leading him to earn the world's first SUP championship title outside of Hawaii by a non-Hawaiian. And he hasn't stopped since then. He has also helped found the Stand Up Paddle Industry Association (SUPIA) and continues to avidly share his passion for the sport. Niemeyer has a bachelor's degree in Philosophy, has done post-graduate research on the merge between Information Technology and Politics, and was working on his PhD in Language and Law at USC.
