Vissla is proud to announce the release of its latest campaign, Creators Gathering: Above The Noise, a visual and creative exploration into the intersection of surf, craft, and community. Set high above the famed pointbreaks of Rincon, the annual Creators Gathering brought together Vissla’s diverse crew of shapers, artists, and surfers for a week of creativity, surfboard design, and collaboration.
Each year, Vissla’s Creators Gathering serves as both a reunion and a reminder. It’s a chance for the brand’s team to step away from the noise of the world and return to the roots of hands-on creation. This year’s trip took place on a sprawling outfitter ranch nestled in the coastal hills of Carpinteria, California, where the team camped, shaped, glassed, and surfed together. The crew transformed the old wooden bunkhouse into a DIY glassing bay and rolled in Vissla’s now-iconic Shaping Bay Trailer, a mobile workshop that embodies the brand’s mantra of creativity and self-reliance.
The trip was captured in Creators Gathering: Above The Noise, a short film that blends documentary-style storytelling with raw surf footage and cinematic glimpses into the shaping process. The film debuts today on Vissla.com, alongside the launch of the Creators Collection, a workwear-inspired lineup built for makers, surfers, and anyone chasing creative pursuits. Over the coming weeks, Vissla will continue releasing episodic features and behind-the-scenes stories from the trip every Friday through the winter season.
“The Creators Gathering is where the brand comes full circle,” says Corey Brindley, Media Marketing Manager at Vissla. “It’s about stepping off the grid and reconnecting with why we started doing this in the first place. Shaping boards, making art, surfing waves, and being around good people. Above The Noise is exactly that: a moment of clarity, creativity, and community.”
The Creators Collection is available now at Vissla.com, featuring a full range of durable, functional, and sustainably built apparel inspired by the week-long adventure.
