A Weekend of Outdoor Living and Exploration
Held for the first time in San Francisco, Electrify Outdoor Rec brought a fresh, exciting vibe to the outdoor activities scene. The event was all about immersing attendees in the outdoor lifestyle, with exhibitors showcasing everything from the newest camping must-haves to innovative outdoor recreational vehicles.
“We wanted to create an experience that truly reflects the spirit of outdoor living,” said Neil Tjin, Director of Electrify Outdoor Rec. “And what better place than the beautiful backdrop of San Francisco?”
The Electrify Outdoor Rec area was full of excitement all weekend as attendees explored a wide range of exhibits. Whether you were there to check out the latest outdoor gear or to admire some impressive custom builds, there was plenty to see and be inspired by.
Family Fun and Outdoor Adventures
Falken Tires, known for their dedication to quality and performance, went all out with their presence at the event. Their partnership with Innovate Marquette, featuring an insane custom Toyota Tundra that could only be described as a camper’s dream, was a highlight. With room to sleep six in two Thule tents, plus a full kitchen and shower setup, it was clear that this was no ordinary camping vehicle.
The Innovate Marquette team traveled all the way from Michigan to showcase their VirsaQuest electric paddle board, proving that even water sports are getting an electric upgrade. And then there was Lightship RV—always a fan favorite. Their setup drew crowds all weekend, proving that their blend of fun and functionality hits all the right notes.
For those more interested in land-based activities, the JackRabbit booth was a hit, with kids, young adults, and adults of all ages trying out their micro bikes, like the OG2, in the JackRabbit zone. It’s not often you see an entire family grinning ear to ear as they zip around a demo area, but that’s exactly the kind of fun Electrify Outdoor Rec brought to the table.
