About Us
Aussie Indigenous Surf Brand
Paying respect to surfing legends and introducing the unseen Australian Indigenous Surfing Collective.
With a history spanning 70,000 years, among the earth's oldest cultures.
Sea brethren descendent from the original elite watermen.
Infusing the brand and apparel with the essence of ocean and land, harmonising with the tones and vibrations of our remarkable country.
Founder: Robbie Page
After fifteen years on the pro surfing circuit meeting indigenous surfers from around the world, Robbie Page’s destiny was to come back to Australia to build an indigenous surf brand with a feeling of belonging. Surfing gave Robbie everything and he now wants to help the next generation of indigenous surfers to achieve their potential.
Robbie realised that while other indigenous surfers around the world had been showcased, no-one had presented Australia’s original watermen and women. Royal Indigenous Surfing is honoured to present this amazing group and our incredible team of indigenous surfing ambassadors. Royal Indigenous Surfing ambassadors are beacons of their communities, leaders on an international scale.
Robbie has a lifetime of achievements in surfing including a Pipeline Masters title, but his five national indigenous surfing titles mean as much, if not more, than any of his professional sporting wins.

Is Royal Indigenous Surfing a charity?
Think of us as a 'social enterprise'—we're all about making waves with a purpose. Our gig? Inspiring and mentoring young indigenous surfers while spreading indigenous culture through our ambassadors.
Our founders? They've been backing indigenous surfing for ages, hooking up sponsorships and gear. And hey, big props to everyone else who's pitched in to help us build this inclusive indigenous surfing scene.
why royal?
Bringing the ALOHA SPIRIT into Australian surfing. The original inspiration for the brand was the Royal Hawaiian Canoe Club.
“Respecting nature and mother earth:
If we learn to respect, love and care for mother earth,
Then we will understand its true balance.
That if I can have love and respect for all living things,
I can love and respect anybody.”
— Wayne Carberry
