Community, Plastic, and a Line I Wouldn’t Cross

David taught me how to use a CD and flasher that day.

He also taught me something else—without meaning to.

When that flasher disappeared into the blue, I felt it.

That wasn’t gear.

That was plastic I would never get back.

From that moment on, I drew a line.

No PVC.

No disposable design.

No gear that vanishes and stays there.

AquaJoy was never about selling products.

It was about not leaving things behind.
