The Zinc or Swim team hopes you had an awesome summer, and shared amazing adventures and moments with loved ones!

Living in Japan it’s so nice being able to see Kiwis out doing what we love to do from afar. Of course, it's a little tough before heading out to train in 0 degrees, but Japan winters are magical nonetheless. As we head into the beauty of the cherry blossom season we’ll be sure to share some photos with you on our socials.

Adapting and growing

As you’re well aware, both myself and Tom are currently playing rugby in Japan and that has meant handing over the distribution to Hā Naturally who have been great at helping our business grow and let us focus on the marketing and social side of the business. Tom and I have had many conversations about how we want to evolve our online presence and have committed to holding each other more accountable to putting in the work so we can provide our audience with content that inspires and brings enjoyment to you all.

We are also starting to explore other markets overseas and have made it one of our goals of 2024 to get into another country's market.

I spy… Tom’s Youtube channel

Sauce has picked up a new passion of vlogging to go with his strong desire to explore Japan and meet all the wonderful people who live here. He has already released a handful of entertaining videos including our first meet up in Japan and has a couple more exciting vlogs coming out soon!
