What is the design process at BOTE? How does a concept become a real, viable product? Aaron May (BOTE's Product Director) joins Corey and Sean to look back on the design and creation of BOTE's newest break-through product - the APEX•PD (pedal-drive).

On this episode, we take a look back a few years. A simple concept of creating a board that was a throw-back to old school longboards while still able to perform as a contemporary SUP. Corey sits down with our R&D guru Pete and discusses the design process and how the Grambler "took shape".

Find out what happens when you combine one of our most popular kayaks with pedal-driven propulsion = LONO + APEX•PD (pedal-drive). Rob joins Corey and Sean to discuss the variety of ways the LONO + APEX•PD changes the game. Also, the fact that it's lighter than a 100lb bag of feathers.

Sean is sitting this one out. In his place is co-founder Magda Cooper. She and Corey discuss a little history of BOTE and how Magda's role(s) have evolved over the years. They also create a new holiday - Mother's Day Eve. Hmmmmmm, what do you think?

Of course, as most of you know, BOTE is immersed in the H2O lifestyle and a part of that lifestyle involves a little bit of beer drinking. Surprised? Corey and Kelly Taylor (owner of Destin Brewery) hang out among fermenting tanks to discuss how the collaboration of BOTE and the Destin Brewery developed BOTE Beer - A Session I.P.A.

Sure, paddle boards and kayaks are cool to use for exploration and recreation, but when it comes to fishing and hunting, they may be the best choice out there. Corey and Sean sit down to discuss how the BOTE family of water platforms can elevate your next hunting or fishing adventure.

This week, Sean and Corey take you behind the scenes of BOTE's new video series "Beneath the Surface" – not to be confused with the Beneath the Surface Podcast. The first episode in the series takes you to Louisiana to hang with our friends Red & Brown.

Whether it's with your husband, wife, partner, kids, friends or pets, going on an adventure is always better together. Corey and Sean sit down to discuss Hallmark holidays and recall different adventures they've been on over the years.

One of the best parts of being on the water is the wildlife you encounter along the way. This week, Sean and Corey tell stories of the most memorable creatures they have run into while paddle boarding over the years.
