For decades, the surf world — and much of men’s culture — glorified the lone rider: the single life, the party scene, and the pursuit of waves without responsibility. It was a story that celebrated freedom but left families behind.

Now, a new generation of men is ready to rewrite that story.

Professional surfer Shayden Pacarro found that true strength in surfing comes not from chasing status, but from healing patterns, choosing family, and leading with heart. Through his own growth as an athlete and father, Shayden saw the need for a space where men could come together — not to prove themselves, but to be supported.

That space is Imua Dads.

Born from the work of Imua Moms, where fathers began reaching out for help, leadership, and guidance, Imua Dads was co-founded by movement leader Danielle Zirkelbach and Shayden Pacarro as a natural continuation of that movement. Together, they’ve built something few have done before — a platform that unites men, families, and the surfing community through shared growth and grounded strength.

We serve fathers, athletes, and men who are ready to evolve — men who want to break cycles, build emotional intelligence, and lead their families with courage and integrity. Whether you’re in the surf industry, raising children, or simply seeking brotherhood, Imua Dads offers a place to grow together.

This is more than a movement — it’s a brotherhood.
A call for men to rise from the old ways into a new kind of strength — one rooted in love, leadership, and legacy.

Because when men heal, families thrive. And when families thrive, the whole world changes.
