The Surfing Elephant: Accenture will produce surfboards, one day

Multinational management consulting firm Accenture has presented the first-ever surfing elephant advertising spot.

"Who says you can't be big and nimble?" is the motto of Accenture's new wave riding adventures.

Surfing seems to spread as a successful marketing tool to promote all kinds of businesses and industries.

Directed by Thierry Poiraud and produced at Paranoid US, Los Angeles, the TV ad features an athletic surfer elephant riding waves and kicking out like a pro.

So, forget Tiger Woods. Who needs him when you've got elephants that can actually surf?
