POD Ware Pty Ltd ABN: 69100685041, formerly known as POD Design Pty Ltd ABN: 28065056224, formerly known as POD Handboards Pty Ltd, was officially established as an Australian company in 1993 by its founder Shane Vassallo.
Renowned in the bodysurfing, bodyboarding, surfing, and swimming industries, POD® is well-known for successfully innovating products by incorporating working fundamentals with advanced technical design – making considerable advances in the water sports world.
POD Ware endlessly researches new development techniques, allowing us to proudly deliver product innovations unparalleled in the market today. Our products are manufactured to the highest standards, using premium quality components and materials and designed with the user in mind.
Sustainable manufacturing since 1988 POD also strives to create environmental solutions by producing longer-lasting products that reduce the environmental impact and decrease the volume in landfills. They believe in doing their part to contribute to greener practices worldwide and are happy to bring you products that promote them.
These principles have come from the simplicity of taking our unique direction in design and working with YOU – the people who support and love our products – to get the best feedback possible and, in return, produce the best surf line possible.
POD Ware innovation is all about purpose, down to the finest contour. Crafting high-quality and durable equipment is an integral part of our mission. The biggest challenge, alongside functionality, is creating enduring forms that do not visually belong to any era. That consideration gives the product you buy a "timeless" quality.
That is the integrity and passion of POD, which fuels our driving force to continually provide innovative and premium-quality products, allowing you to take on the elements with confidence.
