Any google search will throw up countless articles on Manannan Mc Lir. You can read to your hearts content about how he was the lord of the sea and storms and how he looked after sailors and seafaring folk. Reams of literature reagarding his practiacl jokes and many disguises he would wear. But Mananan was something different to us. Special.
We had a dream(Myself and my gorgeous wife Sharon) of setting up Irelands first surfwear label. Not just clothes to wear though. Perhaps we dreamed of people wearing our clothes and being proud. Proud to be Irish. Proud to be living and surfing in this amazing place called Ireland. I am biased of course, but so should you. We have so many things in this little green island to be biased about. Our weather, is not one of them of course. but we do have it and its mostly wet. Our Roads are pretty shite, but they are getting better. Public transport system?!! Do me a favour!
Sorry about that.What do we want? Join our Clan.
We want everyone to come to our parties and party with us every year. We will be having one party to launch the new big wave season and one to end it. (Oct-Feb) Each year we will endeavour to have each party in a different part of the country. So that after two years we should have partied in all four corners of Ireland! We will be having a poker night before the big night each year to raise money for the RNLI. (They save our lives.) You are all welcome. Bring your friends. At the launch night we will have local talent playing amazing music and we will party.
We want you to help us make Mananan Irelands Surfing Clan.
News on our sponsors will be announced during the year when all the paper work is finished. The prizes will be massive (East Coast), Savage(TBay), Langer(Cork), Crankin(Kerry, ) Gnarley(Clare), Bitchin(Sligo) , All right Sham(Donegal), Awesome(Antrim).
North, South, East and West, this site is for you. Help us make this site great. Video your mates surfing and send Rell Studios in the results. Come to our parties and bring your mates. Buy our T-Shirts and be Biased. You...all of you, are welcome with open arms to our Clan. Welcome Brother. Welcome sister. Welcome all. And most of all dont take yourselves too seriously. Have a laugh and be careful out there. Dont be stupid or disrespect the ocean. Mananan can only watch over you if you use your head and follow your heart into the biggest waves of your life. Go for it. Supersize it.You can do it.
Mananan
Lord of The Sea
