In 1971, The Australian surfer and shaper Terry Fitzgerald created Hotbuttered surfboards. HB built a reputation worldwide based on quality, design productions and innovations introduced by TF and colored by Martin Worthington's airbrush. From the 80's, HB evolved it's surfing philosophy into other products including clothing during the 90's, and then sunglasses. Hot buttered international now distributes to 22 countries world-wide. Terry Fitzgerald and HB have never lost sight of their roots- the thrill of riding waves and producing the best product possible for surfing.
