The Business of Brothers

Updated: Feb 5, 2020

CannabaX came to birth when I discovered a "stick" that I felt would help innovate Surfing and it's progression as an Art and Sport.

My name is Brandon Batten and I am currently on a journey with my younger brother Ricky to introduce a new surf wax to our community. Surfing had ignited a passion in my soul that I will continue to chase throughout my lifetime. The art & it's motion and connectivity of the water has molded me and humbled me as an individual in growth and understanding. It has allowed me to respect that there is a true connection to our water and that we carry a certain degree of responsibility to it's conservation.

I moved to Bend, Oregon from San Diego 3 years ago to chase a new kind of surf on a snowboard at Mt. Bachelor and to immerse myself in a new lifestyle. My younger brother had already planted his roots here at Oregon State University to study Renewable Systems Engineering and we are back to living under the same roof sharing morning pots of coffee and carrying discussions of Surf wax and our contribution to this aspect of surfing.

I am not to say that we are chasing a business, but rather an experimental journey. We are not here to create business models and profit margins, but to create a surf wax that respects our environment and our waters; to tap into a purpose.

The CannabaX spark has been ignited and my brother and I will be pursuing this with passionate hearts. We are here to bring something new to you, our community of surfers; to ensure that every wave you catch will be an experience added to your mental library of unforgettable ocean turns.

Wax bar by Wax bar, Experiment by Experiment, Test by Test, Wave by Wave; we hope to be accepted into this community and to be on your board with you one day through the channel of our sustainable surf wax, giving you the best ride with an unforgettable experience.

Much love to you and our common thread of connection- Surf.
