Some of them included the Dollar Shave Club’s founder and CEO, Michael Dubin the Twitter co-founder Biz Stone and Jen Rubio, the co-founder of the luggage brand Away. When Liquid Death first launched in 2019, the brand was backed by many tech notables. Talking about some “extremes,” Mike Cessario had the face of a random Liquid Death customer tattooed on his arm after the customer chugged a can of Liquid Death water under 15 seconds for 365 days!
The heavy metal album includes songs like “Fire Your Marketing Guy” and “I thought this was alcohol.” In 2020, Liquid Death released an album on Spotify called “Greatest Hates” made up of haters’ comments and product reviews the company has received online. Within three months, Liquid Death had more Facebook followers than Aquafina, and the ad had more than 3 million views. He shot the first Liquid Death commercial for $1.5k and spent $3k on paid Facebook ads. Having worked on several viral promotions for Netflix, including campaigns for “House of Cards,” “Narcos,” and “Stranger Things,” Mike Cessario is familiar with eye-catching marketing. Liquid Death’s Branding: Nothing murders your thirst better than water Mike Cessario says the brand was initially designed for heavy metal and punk rock fans who immediately understand the humor behind the brand and its campaigns. This led him to create a water brand that the bands actually enjoy drinking while performing.Ĭessario’s background playing in punk and heavy metal bands influenced Liquid Death’s branding, which speaks to the straight-edgers that eschew alcohol and drugs. However, when speaking to the bands, he learned that they preferred to drink water while performing, but had to put water in an energy drink can due to their sponsorship requirements. Mike Cessario said that during the 2008 Warped Tour, he noticed energy drink companies heavily sponsor rock bands and rock tours.
Despite the name, Liquid Death is nothing but good old-fashioned H2O, served in a tallboy can. Former Netflix director Mike Cessario founded the brand back in 2018.

The vehicle's standard retail price is $6,995.A couple of weeks ago, Liquid Death announced they had raised $75 million in Series C funding round that values the water brand at more than $500 million. The contraption is also the subject of an Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign that might help accelerate the process of jumping from prototype to bar-cod. For now, Dan is building a small run of just 10 vehicles to help perfect the engineering. Dan says that it has four times more surface drive area of a motor cross bike, but just 20 percent of its weight.Ĭurrently, the Vendetta is just a prototype that is being assembled mostly by hand on the Coffs Coast (East side of Australia). The transition from 4-stroke internal combustion to electric made the powerboard lighter than its predecessors, tipping the scale at just 19.5 kg (43 lbs). The vehicle can glide effortlessly over the most rugged terrains, all thanks to its puncture-proof tracks, and it can reach a top speed of 50 kph (31 mph).
The motors are powered by a swappable central battery pack, which has a run time of about 40 minutes, based on a 75 kgs (165 lbs) rider that travels at the average speed of 25 kph (16 mph) on a flat circuit. Vendetta is propelled by centrally mounted internal drive brushless hub motors within the drive rollers. However, what lies underneath the deck is what sets the design apart, giving it a twin-tracked articulated tank style. It features a skateboard-like deck where the rider can simply jump on and ride away. A little more than a year ago, he redesigned a few things, including the vehicle's geometry, and as a result, the Ungoverned Vendetta was born. The skilled hands behind this machine belong to Dan Baldwin, a surfer/ skater/ snowboarder who also invented the Scarpar powerboard.
