Fanatic is a long-running watersports brand founded in 1981 and known for windsurfing, boardriding, SUP, and foiling products. The company has German roots and became one of the recognizable European windsurfing brands during the sport’s major growth period in the 1980s and 1990s. Fanatic’s own brand material describes the company as founded in 1981, while windsurfing history sources also connect the brand’s early years to German industrialist Udo Schütz.
