"We've come a long way since we launched our Kickstarter 18 months ago," said Trace Co-Founder, David Lokshin. "I'm thrilled to be going into core retail and supporting the shops that I grew up in. Surfing and snowboarding has been a huge part of my life and it's really important for us to support that culture and lifestyle."

Trace hand selected the industry's leading retailers for the launch of the world's best action sports tracker. Initial Trace carriers include Huntington Surf and Sport in Huntington Beach, Calif., Jacks in Newport, Calif., Surf Ride in Oceanside, Calif., Mitch's in San Diego, Calif., Brave New World in N.J., EVO in Portland, Ore., Town and Country Surf and Local Motion in Hawaii.

"The technology and analytics of Trace are next level," said Jordy. "It provides me with an accurate review of each surf session and the auto edit allows me to see where I am going wrong and how I can perfect my surfing. In my opinion, this is the next step in surfing progression."
