Vangest has just launched a new campaign composed of a three-part mini-series, under the theme “How do I go faster?”, featuring British big-wave surfer Andrew Cotton. The campaign aims to bring together the group’s historic brands – Moliporex, Distrim 2, Grandesign and EHTP – under a new and unified name: Vangest.

The campaign includes three episodes – Experience, Gear and Community – starring the renowned surfer Andrew Cotton. In each piece, he draws a parallel between these two worlds, beautifully telling a story that is also Vangest’s story.

The first episode, Experience, carries the message “Experience can’t be bought”. It portrays the knowledge and expertise that both Vangest and Andrew have gained over the years. From the beach to Vangest’s facilities, the parallel is drawn through their shared dedication to their craft, showing that there are no shortcuts to mastering a field.

In Gear, Vangest and Andrew highlight the importance of knowing your equipment and keeping up with every innovation that optimises performance — key to maintaining consistency at the highest level.

Under the concept “It’s crucial to surround yourself with the right people”, the third episode, Community, showcases the values shared by Vangest and Andrew. Both believe in bringing together people driven by leadership and determination to achieve their goals. Faces that form an inspiring team — often unseen by the end customer — but who give meaning to a common dream and ensure that the whole is always greater than the sum of its parts.
