About Us

Grindwater is headed up by its president, Darin Shapiro. With more world titles and achievments than any other wake athlete in the history of the sport, Darin has always pushed himself to achieve perfection on the water. That same dedication and hard work has bled into Grindwater, with Darin not accepting anything but the highest quality products. Using the best materials, the best construction methods, the best engineers and the best ride, Grindwater brings to the water what no other company does. Darin came up with the idea for Grindwater as a way to start giving back to the industry that he is so passionate about, and to bring high quality products to the water. Darin is a dedicated surfer, from waves to wake, he knows what to expect from a board. He has put all this experience and knowledge into his own line of signature Shapiro boards, and stands behind them as the best wakesurf boards in the world. Grindwater stands head and shoulders above the rest for performance and quality, with every inch of every product backed by Darin Shapiro.....
