Global sports equipment maker for water and mountain sports
Boards & More Group owns four established sports brands spanning kiteboarding, windsurfing, wingfoiling, stand-up paddleboarding, and mountain biking. The company is scaling sales and logistics headcount while managing operational friction in order fulfillment and cross-team collaboration — a hiring pattern typical of DTC brands wrestling with supply-chain velocity mismatches. Stack is lean (Storyblok, Dynamics 365, social + content tools) with no major tech migrations underway, suggesting internal tooling is not a strategic blocker.
Boards & More GmbH, headquartered in Molln, Upper Austria, manufactures and distributes sports equipment across five global categories: kiteboarding, windsurfing, wingfoiling, stand-up paddleboarding, and mountain biking. The company consolidated four brands under one structure — Fanatic, Duotone, ION, and SQlab — with roots in the market extending over 40 years. It operates as a public company serving retail and direct-to-consumer channels, with active focus on TikTok Shop, paid social campaigns, and Storyblok-managed content infrastructure. Current hiring is concentrated in sales and logistics across Austria and Germany, indicating regional distribution expansion.
Primary tools include Storyblok (web content management), Dynamics 365 (ERP), Hootsuite (social scheduling), and native integrations with Meta, TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram for marketing and commerce.
The company is the world leader in kiteboarding, windsurfing, and wingfoiling, and also manufactures stand-up paddleboards and mountain bikes across its four brands: Fanatic, Duotone, ION, and SQlab.
