O'Neill launches Jack's Memorial T-shirt with all proceeds going to O'Neill Sea Odyssey

Legends live forever

Jack’s legacy was celebrated on a global scale on July 9th with a historic worldwide ceremony. If the ultimate purpose of life is to love and be loved, then Jack succeeded immeasurably by building a family across the world that he loved and loved him back, across every ocean.

From Santa Cruz to Sydney, thousands of surfers paid tribute to the life & adventures of the late Jack O’Neill with a giant ‘circle of love’. Across 5 continents and more than 10 countries, the symbolic memorial paddle outs spanned all corners of the globe - including Australia, Belgium, Canada, France, Netherlands, South Africa, UK, and last but not least - Santa Cruz, USA.

Proceeds will be donated to O’Neill Sea Odyssey, one of Jack’s proudest achievements. In 1996, Jack established the Sea Odyssey (OSO), a marine & environmental education program to promote the protection and preservation of our living sea. Now in its 21st year, the O'Neill Sea Odyssey has served over 94,000 Ocean Stewards and will welcome it's 100,000th student in 2018.

Thanks Jack for inspiring a new generation, and for empowering children to connect with the ocean.

About O'Neill

O'Neill, the original California surf, snow and lifestyle brand, was founded in 1952 when a young man named Jack O'Neill took his unstoppable passion for surfing and used it to beat Mother Nature at her own game.

Pioneering the world's first neoprene surf wetsuit, Jack had successfully found a way to extend his surf sessions in the bone-chilling breaks of Northern California. He opened up the garage doors to his first surf shop soon after.
While many things have changed since those humble beginnings, Jack's initial vision of producing functional and innovative board riding products continues to inspire people and empower them to do what they love doing most.
