Thank You for Rolling With MERGE4 in 2025

2025 didn’t slow down—and neither did we.

From skate contests and beach breaks to dusty fields, loud stages, and late nights, this year took MERGE4 through the places where movement, music, and culture naturally come together. We showed up to listen, participate, and support the communities that welcomed us in.

If you saw us out there, you know.

Where We Spent the Year

We stayed close to the ground in 2025.

At skate contests like Exposure Skate, Santa Cruz Boardroom and the Tim Brauch Skate Contest, where progression, creativity, and community are always front and center. At surf events and longboard sessions, where time in the water still matters.

We crossed paths with music culture in a big way - Punk Rock Bowling, Coachella, Stagecoach, and California Roots Festival. Different scenes, same energy, with people coming together around what they love and making it their own. Thanks to Otis, Gary and Dan for these awesome festivals and for letting MERGE4 be a part of them. 

The People Make It Awesome

Artists. Athletes. Musicians. Skaters. Surfers. Community.

2025 was shaped by collaborations with people who care deeply about what they do and the impact it has. The stories we shared this year came from real places and real experiences, and we’re grateful to help amplify them.

One standout moment was seeing MERGE4 show up inside Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater. For a brand rooted in skate culture, it felt incredible to be part of something that inspired so many of us to step on a board in the first place.

Another powerful moment was supporting fire victims and first responders. Guided by Saratoga Fire Department Captain Matt Freeman, we were able to show up where help was truly needed—pure community, in action.

Community Over Everything

Community continues to guide everything we do.

We were back courtside with the Santa Cruz Warriors for another sock toss or four, attended the Nowell Family Foundation event in Oceanside, and kept riding alongside the Santa Cruz Longboard Union.

We also continued our work with Boarding for Breast Cancer, helping share their message around early detection, education, and action. Getting important information into people’s hands, wherever we can, is something we’ll always stand behind.

Built to Hold Up

All year long, our socks were doing what they’re designed to do - holding up through sessions, sets, miles, and long days on concrete.

Performance you can feel, whether you’re skating, surfing, walking festival grounds, or moving through everyday life.

On to 2026

We’re grateful for everyone who rolled with us in 2025- every collaborator, every community, every shared moment.

2026 is already taking shape. Same values. Same care. Still moving forward.

Thanks for being part of it.
