Stephan Aarstol is the entrepreneur behind Tower Paddle Boards, the stand up paddle board company that landed a deal with Mark Cuban on Shark Tank in 2012. Since the TV appearance and Cuban’s investment, Tower Paddle Boards’ annual revenues have grown more than 2500% — that’s in the last four years. Reporting $17 million in sales, Cuban has said Tower Paddle Boards is one of his best Shark Tank investments.
