OUR STORY

Founded in 2017, WIMBI is a family-owned business that was started with a passion for providing quality boards for the surf and skate community. Reed Burr grew up shaping boards in East Africa with his family. Both having grown up as missionary kids in East Africa, Reed and Priscilla Burr met at a young age and eventually got married in Kenya. When he moved to the United States, Reed kicked around the idea of starting a surf and skate company for many years. With a desire to help others, Priscilla encouraged Reed to start a company where he could do what he loves while investing in others.
