Wasserman Media Buys Wetsand Technology

by The Editors on May 5, 2008

Chuck Menzel, the founder of Wetsand.com has sold the wave forecasting portion of his business to the Wasserman Media Group for an undisclosed sum, according to a Josh Hunter story on TransworldBusiness.com. He has, however, retained ownership of the Wetsand store front and commerce site.

It’s the creative side of it that we really wanted to maintain, and I’m still creatively in control of the site, as far as keeping it on track with content and credibility,” he says.

Menzel has been looking for buyers for his popular site for more than a year, and we’re guessing being a part of Sportnet (which also includes action sports sites: surfspot.com, motocross.com, 411vm.com, newschollers.com, skateboard.com and sk8site.com) is going to be a great fit. Especially, as surfspot.com continues to grow its traffic.
