This is why I think Ned and Biofoam will succeed. He has honest intentions of actually producing a better product, not just hyping it for short term sales. In a new product like this there will be inevitable setbacks and it’s how you deal with those and inform your customers that sets you apart. My experience with Ned and Biofoam has been extremely positive. He’s realistic in his approach as well, understanding that this isn’t the solution to the world’s problems but merely a step in the right direction in our small little microcosm that we like to call surfing. Much respect to Ned for posting pics of a buckled Biofoam board. Very few people in the business world have the balls to step up and admit to failures in their product, especially in the surf industry. The fact that he (and his company) are looking at it objectively with the mindset of “how can we improve this” is an indication that we have much more to look forward to from these guys.
