- Get your riding in front of hundreds of thousands through AONIC's paid campaigns.
Ben — Founder
“Every session I'd have to choose between music and the ocean. I refused to accept that.” After losing three pairs of headphones to wipeouts, Ben built the pair he always wanted. Now he's building the team to ride with them.

Post from your sessions, earn commission on every sale, and push your raw clips to your shared AONIC folder. Best clips end up in our ads.

Real gear. Real money. Real reach.
Free & discounted gear
AONIC Flow 2.0 — IPX8 ocean-proof, open-ear, 32GB onboard — free or heavily discounted, depending on the deal we set up together.
Commission on every sale
Every order through your code or link pays you a cut. Tracked automatically, visible in your own dashboard, paid out reliably.
Paid retainer deals
Top performers start on a 3–5 post test. Deliver, and we move you to a paid 10–15 post monthly retainer. We invest in the athletes who show up.

This isn't for everyone. It's for the ones who paddle out when it's blown out, film the wipeouts, and post it anyway. Any audience size — 500 followers or 500k. If you live on the water, this is your place.

FAQ
Quick answers.
How do I get paid?
Through UpPromote, our affiliate platform. You get your own dashboard showing clicks, sales and earnings, with payouts on a regular schedule. No invoices, no chasing.
How does commission tracking work?
Two ways, both automatic: your unique affiliate link and your personal discount code. Either one attributes the sale to you — even if someone just uses your code at checkout without clicking anything.
What happens with the content I share?
You keep your channels and your audience. Clips you push to your shared AONIC folder can be used in our ads and socials — always credited to you. That's the trade: we amplify you, you fuel us.
What's the folder workflow?
After approval you get a private shared folder. After sessions, dump your raw clips and photos in — no editing needed. We handle the rest.
Do I need a big following?
No. Some of our best-converting athletes have small, tight communities. Ride hard, film it, post it — that's the bar.
