Bloom Harvesting Process Reduces Harmful Algae and Returns Clean Water to the Environment

MIRAMAR BEACH, Fla. (March 3, 2025) /OUTDOOR SPORTSWIRE/ – BOTE (https://www.boteboard.com), the longstanding leader of innovation in the paddleboard, kayak, and water lifestyle space, today introduces Breeze Bloom, a new addition to the Breeze Aero range of paddleboards that features a deckpad made with Bloom algae.

The lightweight, stable Breeze Aero is among BOTE’s best-selling boards and is known for its versatility and accessibility for paddlers of all skill levels. The standout feature of the new Breeze Bloom is its Full Trax (nose to tail) foam deckpad made from Bloom algae, a material that addresses the environmental challenge of harmful algae blooms by harvesting nuisance algae and returning clean water to the environment. The construction begins with wet algae, which is dried into flakes, refined into green powder, blended with polymers, and converted into Bloom pellets which were used to create the deckpad.

“The Breeze Bloom is a testament to how innovative technology can create meaningful solutions to environmental challenges while enhancing our outdoor experiences,” said Skye Bailey, Director of Marketing, BOTE. “As a brand we’re 100% focused on the water, so it’s exciting to work with Bloom and have a product that helps restore aquatic habitats while offering the same performance, stability and style that BOTE customers expect.”

The Breeze Bloom paddleboard features BOTE’s AeroULTRA construction combining military-grade PVC for unmatched durability with a lightweight design for easy transport, storage, and handling. The Breeze accommodates a wide range of skill levels, and is available in 10’6” and 11’6” lengths at the same price ($699) to ensure paddlers get the right board for their needs.

The Breeze Bloom is exclusively available at REI stores nationwide and REI.com.
