Surfari surf shop team
Surfari Surfshop - Who we are!
Behind the Surfari Surfshop are people, and surfers. We are a small team that does its best with expertise and years of experience to ensure your surfing or beach holiday becomes an unforgettable experience. In a positive sense, of course. We are not a mail-order company, nor are we a large chain of stores, but rather we are athletes running a specialist shop. Down-to-earth and honest to the core, because we know what we are doing... even if we (still) don't have an ocean here in Switzerland.
Roman Hartmann
Managing Director, COO, CFO, CMO, CIO and point of contact for complaints of all kinds
Roman is the founder and "padre" of Surfari. He is a brainbug and mastermind, can work or party until the early hours and is still the first one back on the mat. There is hardly any area of expertise he can't contribute to, and when he says something, you can believe him.
Motto: Sit deep, go steep. From now on, only Tadaa! instead of Todo.
Milan 'Muli' Brunner
Brand Manager for paint markers, Chief Repairs Officer (CRO), Senior Director Drink Supply
Muli is a father of two, a rock-solid employee and practically part of the fixtures. He moved over from the fashion store to the surf shop and, in addition to ocean surfing, is also well-versed in river and pool surfing. There is hardly a river wave he doesn't know, and every now and then he even makes it onto the podium at contests.
Motto: 'Too old to die young' and 'Better to be surfing than sitting in the office'
Pamela Wengi
If you could put good vibes onto a surfboard, Pam would be the result.
She has been a part of the Surfari team for years. Sometimes at the Mall of Switzerland, sometimes in the Fashion Store, and now permanently at the surf shop on Stauffacher. Well-traveled, experienced in surfing, and highly motivated, she takes care of everything in the surf shop.
Motto: 'chillas ,ihani so gärn'
Fabian Kubli
“Kublinator” – as we affectionately call him – has been our funny, somewhat sarcastic employee for a year. He always has a cheeky remark ready and knows pretty much every surfboard brand that nobody else knows. Confident, level-headed, well-traveled, and with an almost unsettling amount of life experience, he is a real asset to the surf shop.
Motto: "Yeah, totally...", "Per se..."
Anouk Ulrich
Anouk is our "chick" and outed herself as a millennium kid from day one (as she not only knows Tamagotchis, but still feeds one regularly)! She brings a fresh breeze into the shop with her loving and calm manner! She has taken over the parcel station in the basement in record time and "packages" like a rocket & secretly to trumpet music ;-)
Thimea Chryssolouris
Thimea is the newest addition to the Surfari team. Even before she started her first day of work, she had the team wrapped around her finger with muffins - ever since, this has been an official performance component in her employment contract. Her name reveals that she is half-Greek, which is why she loves to be addressed in Greek - not.
Thimea as in Tanimal-loving, Tattooed and Tsurfskate-y - glad you're with us!
