I’ve been using Aloe Up products for the last 3 years in the Mountains an am really stoked on how well it works. Being a professional Snowboarder, I spend a lot of time working big days in the mountains. So to have good sunscreen protecting me is very important. Not only does Aloe Up have a huge range, the product is long lasting and is grease-free which I love. - Will Jackways

Leroy Rust

Leroy grew up in a surf shop and has already logged more hours in the ocean than the average surfer will in a lifetime. Leroy is a master at riding any kind of surfboard, picking up surf contest trophies and awards for both shortboard and longboard and big wave categories. He was the first New Zealander to paddle into a wave at Hawaii’s infamous big wave spot Jaws.

“Aloe Up, I’m stoked on the stuff! It’s seriously the only sunscreen I’ve found that lets me confidently do everything that I love without getting cooked by sun. Whether it’s surfing, skateboarding, snowboarding, hunting or hiking, there’s always some nature in the activity that makes you outperform, wear out or rub off your sunscreen but not with Aloe Up. It doesn’t wash off in the water or bleed into my eyes; it absorbs straight in to your skin so I don’t sweat it out or rub it off; and it’s not greasy so you won’t end up looking like the abominable snowman when you try it out. The Sport Range is practically bullet proof, I recommend them. One good application and you’re set for hours!”Leroy Rust
