HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif., May 18, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Surfline recently unveiled a new student discount program. The program makes Surfline Premium available to all US college students for half off. Surfline's student discount program provides students with affordable surf forecasts and hd surf cams, encouraging students stressed by rising education costs and demanding class schedules to make time for healthy ocean activities such as surfing.
"Education expenses put immense financial pressure on students and families," says VP of subscriptions marketing George Roleter. "We hope the deep Premium discount for students helps alleviate some of that pressure and gets students surfing more."
A Surfline Premium membership is a valuable tool for the student surfer. Premium features allow students to plan their surf sessions ahead and know when and where the waves will be best.
Premium memberships include:
- Ad-Free HD surf cams
- Expert forecast
- 17 day forecasts
- Exclusive discounts on gear and trips, from surfboards to wetsuits, lodging and more.
"50% off Surfline memberships are insane," UC Santa Barbara student and avid surfer Jachin Hamborg said. "Now, I'll be able to afford this year's subscription and next month's supply of cereal."
Elementary, middle and high school students who wish to take advantage of the Surfline student discount program but do not have a .edu email address are encouraged to snap a photo of their student ID or a recent report card and send it to promo@surfline.com. An activation link will be sent via email.
