Downloaded from http://hdl.handle.net/10072/367960 Griffith Research Online https://research-repository.griffith.edu.au MAKING WAVES Making waves: Contesting the lifestyle marketing and sponsorship of female surfers Roslyn Franklin DipTPE, BEd, MEd School of Education and Professional Studies Griffith University Gold Coast campus Submitted in fulfilment of The requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy April 2012 MAKING WAVES 2 Abstract The surfing industry is a multi-billion dollar a year global business (Gladdon, 2002). Professional female surfers, in particular, are drawing greater media attention than ever before and are seen by surf companies as the perfect vehicle to develop this global industry further. Because lifestyle branding has been developed as a modern marketing strategy, this thesis examines the lifestyle marketing practices of the three major surfing companies Billabong, Rip Curl and Quicksilver/Roxy through an investigation of the sponsorship experiences of fifteen sponsored female surfers. The research paradigm guiding this study is an interpretive approach that applies Doris Lessing’s (1991) concept of conformity and Michel Foucault’s (1979) notion of surveillance and the technologies of the self. An ethnographic approach was utilised to examine the main research purpose, namely to: determine the impact of lifestyle marketing by Billabong, Rip Curl and Quicksilver/Roxy on sponsored female surfers.
