About us

Bitchin waves - brand born out of Olympic dreams and salty adventures”

OUR STORY

We’re Veronika Macarol and Žan Luka Zelko —professional sailors who’ve competed in four Olympic Games. The ocean isn’t just where we compete, it’s where we feel most alive. Veronika’s a kitesurfing, while Žan is all about wingfoiling and catching waves. Our love for the sea runs deep, and that’s why we’ve poured our passion into creating something special—Bitchin Waves—a brand born out of Olympic dreams and salty adventures

Bitchin Waves is more than just a brand—it’s our way of sharing our love for the ocean with the world. Every design tells a story of adventure, freedom, and respect for the sea. Our passion for sailing, surfing, and protecting the ocean is at the heart of everything we create. We hope Bitchin Waves inspires you to ride the waves and protect what we love most—our planet’s oceans.”

OUR APPROACH

Every design you see comes straight from Veronika’s creative mind—she’s a graphic designer who’s always had a love for art. We’re also serious about giving back, so our products are eco-friendly, and 1% of every sale goes directly to organization “1% for the planet”.

Got thoughts? We’d love to hear from you! Drop us a message anytime on email, Facebook, or Instagram. Every message means the world to us, and we’re always stoked to connect!

“Ride the wave, make a change”
