ABOUT US
Quiet Flight was created out of a passion for surfing. Our focus and dedication to craftsmanship and performance in the world of surfboards is what keeps us going. Our business was built on our commitment to achieve and maintain that reputation.
Jim and Ed Leasure started
Jim and Ed Leasure started building surfboards in their garage in Cocoa Beach back in 1972. Rich Salick and Bob Carson gave them their first real job in the surf industry at Dick Catri’s Primo Surf Shop. At the Catri Factory they got to work with some of the best in the industry from Gary Proper, Fred Groskreutz, Richard Munson, Mike Tabling, Claude Codgen, Tommy Maus, Bill Finberg and Bill Eberwine to name a few.
In 1978 Ed and Jim opened
In 1978 Ed and Jim opened their own factory building boards under the Salick logo as well as their own brand, Leasure Surfboards. A year later they took over the original Quiet Flight Surf Shop in south Cocoa Beach. Today Quiet Flight is one of the largest manufacturers of surfboards in the country.
