About Our Team

Brooke Ely

Founder

As the founder of Tailored Wake, my mission is to provide top-quality, custom water sport gear inspired by my years of experience and passion for the water sports community.

My journey as a water sports enthusiast began many years ago, and over the years, it has grown into a deep passion that drives everything I do. I've surfed both skim and surf style and have been fortunate enough to compete at various levels, constantly pushing myself to improve. Along the way, I've had the privilege of volunteering with organizations such as Wake the World and Splash Norris Lake, where I helped introduce newcomers to the joys of water sports and supported community-building events. These experiences have not only deepened my love for the sport but also reinforced my commitment to making water sports accessible and enjoyable for everyone.

Training for competitions and exploring new techniques has given me a unique understanding of the specific gear needed to elevate performance, which led me to create a company dedicated to providing fully customizable, high-performance water sport gear. I believe that every rider, whether a beginner or seasoned competitor, deserves equipment that is tailored to their needs—because when your gear fits your style and enhances your skills, the experience is like no other. My goal is to bring you gear that inspires confidence, boosts performance, and connects you with the water in a whole new way.

Thank you for being part of this journey with me—let’s make every ride unforgettable!
