David Gray
Content Director - Formally Finisterre

After 16 years of working with Finisterre, I’ve decided it’s the right moment to step back and let the next chapter unfold, for both me and the brand.
I joined as the seventh employee in 2009, back when we were shifting a few jackets a week and trying to work out who we were and what we stood for.
Some of the clearest memories are from those early trips, hunkering down in the old tents on cold headlands, watching the horizon for the first lines of impending swell.
Those moments taught us a lot about ourselves and the brand we were becoming.
We latched onto those tents and what they stood for: the environments we put them in, the people who embodied the attitude, and the gear we needed to take us there.
They brought us warmth in the cold, camaraderie in isolation, and revelry in the rewards the ocean gave.
Together, we built something special at Finisterre, an amazing brand with the potential to sit alongside the best in the world. A brand with depth, character, authenticity and community at its core, all of which still runs through its veins.
I’m especially proud of the photography and storytelling we created along the way. We collected content on tiny budgets, hiked cameras over clifftops, camped in rough weather, chased fleeting windows of light and swell, and embraced the challenger-brand mentality. We endured the hardship, and we shared the reward.
There are far too many people to thank individually, but I hope everyone I’ve worked with over the years knows the impact they’ve had.
As I move on, I’m excited to see how Finisterre evolves. There’s huge things ahead, and I’ll always be proud to have been part of its story.
To all @finisterre, keep charging, @tommykay7, what a ride.

The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
