My name is David Elliott, and I am the owner & founder of Davesurf Productions, LLC. Here's the story about how all of this started, where it is going and how we can help you. I started working with websites in 1995 and around the end of 1998 I started a small web design company. I was serving in the US Air Force, had a brand new baby girl and living in Hawaii. The internet was brand new to us and I was hooked. I taught myself how to design websites from scratch by braking down other websites. I was an Art student in High School and College. Web design quickly became my new art medium. When I started the web design company in Hawaii, I was surfing almost every day. I wanted to hang out with the Surf Industry people, so I formed a plan to build and manage the pro surfers and surf shop owner's websites. My plan worked. I built the Hawaiian Surf Surf Shop site for Fred Patacchia Sr., Classic Surfboards Surf Shop for Ginny and Cippy and the client list grew from there. Building websites for the surf industry helped me meet Randy Rarick, the renown surfboard shaper and Director of the Triple Crown of Surfing. We have been designing theHawaiianSurfAuction.com website for over a decade. It is a bi-annual live auction event in Honolulu with live online bidding and live video feed. It grossed over $850,000 in sales last year. All of this was done while I was on active duty in the Air Force, occasionally deploying to far away lands and taking care of a young family. I also started a small eco car care product company, called Freedom Waterless Car Wash, in 1999. I used the web design/ web marketing to promote it world-wide and it became (and still is) very successful. I still operate it today. Many years later, I was divorced, re-married, had 2 more children, retired from the Air Force, and became successful running my eco car care product business. We did it by continually building our vast website network and built dozens of websites for clients. I keep up on the
