Founder & CEO of Goldie Bro Surf Co • Surfers Paradise, QLD

G'day! I’m Andrew Kinsman, a seasoned surfer, global traveling nomad, and the proud founder of Goldie Bro Surf Co, nestled in the heart of Surfers Paradise on Australia’s stunning Gold Coast.

Surfing has always been in my bones. From the moment I first paddled out under the iconic skyline of Surfers Paradise, I knew where I belonged. After years honing my craft on waves from Noosa Heads to Californian breaks, I set my sights on creating a surf company that blended high-performance riding with a community-driven, fun lifestyle.

I launched Goldie Bro Surf Co in 2021—starting with a tight-knit crew of local riding legends, a curated selection of premium shortboards and Malibu longboards, and a vision: to provide surfing experiences with personality, professionalism, and that unmistakable Aussie laid-back flair.

What Makes Goldie Bro Surf Co Stand Out:

• Locally-rooted expertise: All of our coaching and guiding is delivered by seasoned surfers who know the breaks and tides of the Gold Coast like the back of their hands.

• Premium gear & board hire: We offer top-tier equipment—from epoxy performance boards to custom epoxy longboards—for every skill level, backed by expert advice.

• Authentic community events: Whether it's midnight surf meetups under the Surfers Paradise lights, pop-up beach BBQs, or charity events supporting ocean cleanup, we’re about more than just riding waves—we're about building connections.

• Flexible group and private options: Catering to solo travelers, families, stoked beginners, and adrenaline-seeking wave chasers alike.

With growing presence in the surf community, Goldie Bro Surf Co has become known for its fresh approach: high-end coastal experiences delivered with warmth, good humor, and local spirit. Whether you’re riding your first wave or chasing that barrel of a lifetime, we're here to make it happen—Goldie Bro style.

When I'm not overseeing the surf shop or coaching sessions, you’ll find me exploring new surf breaks, capturing epic snaps from my drone, or hanging out at local surf festivals in Burleigh Heads.

Cheers, and catch you on the Gold Coast waves soon!
