Dope is a family owned business. Born on the beach in California, we grew up surfing and when the waves are flat we ride skateboards. We invented skateboard wax in the 80s, created the world's first hemp surf wax, and are the original Dope brand. And in keeping with our long standing tradition of originality, creativity, and innovation we're proud to say that all of our surf wax is made primarily from tree sap and hand-poured in our California factory. Ask for it by name...Dope.
