Gerry Lopez, aka “Mr. Pipeline,” is one of the world’s most iconic and respected big wave surfers, shapers, ocean advocates, and…yogis. Known for his Zen-like meditative approach to surfing, Gerry uses his 50 years of practicing and teaching yoga to successfully bridge the gap between earth, sport, and soul.
In Gerry’s honor, Manduka is excited to introduce a special collection of mats and towels inspired by his signature surfboard prints. Gerry and Manduka have designed this collection to forge a deep bond dedicated to spreading the practice of yoga. As we align with ourselves through yogic practice, we align with nature, creating a synergistic pipeline that unites all life in a common goal—to protect and preserve our precious resources for generations to come.
The best-selling Manduka PRO yoga mat is luxuriously dense for unparalleled comfort and cushioning. With a lifetime guarantee, the Manduka PRO Mat will revolutionise your practice for years to come.
- closed-cell surface to keep moisture and sweat from seeping into the mat and breeding bacteria and proprietary dot pattern bottom to resist sliding
- high-density cushion for unparalleled experience, joint protection, and versatility on any surface (carpet, cement, hardwood floors)
- fabric-like surface finish for optimal movement between poses
- sustainable engineering ensures high quality material will not peel, flake or fade
- designed to last a lifetime (or two), Manduka PRO series yoga mats are 100% latex- free and curb the amount of PVC mats that enter landfills every year
To Store: Roll Manduka PRO mats with the top side (fabric-finish) facing outwards. This keeps the corners of the mat flat when practicing.
To Break In: The surface texture of Manduka PRO mats improves with use. The best way to break in your mat is practise, practise, practise, but if you want to speed things up a little,try a simple salt scrub, or cleaning your mat thoroughly before and after every practice with a non-scratch sponge and a mat wash (or a homemade mixture of organic detergent and water).
