What do you like about doing the report (aside
from the obvious fame and fortune)?
That I have a purpose for waking up early, and get to
see the beach before anyone else.
What possesses you to get up at dawn every morning
and do surf report for free?
That one day I may not get the chance to see it again.
What makes your surf reports better than those
of our competitors?
That I actually get to go and see it, and wait for the
sets and then wait a bit more and then tell.
Do you ever wake up late and hungover and just
make something up.
Probably no. cause I am responsible.
Any words of advice for someone who is just learning
to surf? Do not do it when is bigger than waist
high and/or near of those who know what are they doing!!
Watch and learn!!!
Other than surfing what are your hobbies?
Skateboarding and photography.
Any surf destination you haven’t been to that you’d
like to check out? Mexico and Fiji

nope
