Brenden Newton is the envy of kids everywhere having won the Put Your Name Here competition to become the newest member of the Respect team. As the company said, “(We) decided it was time to look for some representation in Oz, the cradle of the world bodyboarding panorama. So we launched the Put Your Name Here contest in Australia in order to find the most outstanding riders out there. We received a lot of emails with footage, photos and CVs from guys all over Australia and surprisingly Brenden’s was one of them. He was looking for a sponsor and we were looking for somebody like him (very hard to find). No doubt it was kind of a miracle. He was all we were looking for: he’s got the talent, the potential, the courage, the style, the charisma … everything.”
