The Origins of the Classic Surf Greeting and Beyond

The Shaka, also known as “Hang Loose“, is more than just a friendly wave—it’s a symbol of culture, embodying the essence of surfing and the free spirit. But did you know the Shaka also stands for sustainability and respect for the environment?

Deep Roots, Global Impact

The origins of the Shaka are varied, but they all share a common theme: a profound sense of community and respect. Whether it started with the worker Hamana or from Hawaiian lei traditions, the Shaka has become a global gesture, much like Blide’s mission to promote a sustainable and eco-friendly lifestyle.

The Perfect Shaka: A Sign of Commitment

Throwing a Shaka isn’t just a gesture—it’s a commitment to yourself and the planet. It’s a way to say, “Yes, I care.” And, just like us at Blide, you can add your personal touch, forging a deeper connection with the values it represents.

The Shaka is ever-evolving, just like our commitment at Blide to innovate in sustainability. Whether you go with the classic Shaka or the double Shaka, each variation is a shout of freedom and a promise to care for our planet.
