Q & A
1. Favorite Shaka Laka Product: My favorite is the face stick. Its really sick cause its doesn't burn my eyes, and I keeps me covered for hours!
2. Favorite Movie Quote: From Rob Machado's first profile movie Drifting, " I think style is basically everything. Your just given a wave and no body tells you how you have to ride it or anything, its like self expression you just go out and you do what you want. I think thats where style comes in, thats how your expressing yourself ".
3. Where did you ride your first wave: Torrey Pines, a beach/ reef break near my house.
4. What song best represents you or your life: Misty Morning by Bob Marley. " Misty morning, Don't see no sun, I know your out there somewhere having fun. There is one mystery ya, just can't express..... Light like a feather, heavy as lead ".
5. If you were stuck on an island with one person for the rest of your life, who would it be and why: My friend Paola from Venezula. She's awesome and very smart. She could teach me spanish, and I could teach her how to surf. I could surf all day too, and she could film;then we could make a really sick surf vid!!
6. Favorite stuffed animal as a kid and why: Speedy the turtle, becuase I believe turtles are wise and intelligent creatures. They're modest but still really gnarly.
7. Favorite super hero and why: Michelangelo from TMNT. That show was so sick when I was a kid. My dad had a bunch of shows on tape.
8. Favorite surfers and why: Rob Machado, Mick Fanning, and Joel Tudor. Joel lives right up the street from me in Del Mar and has such a good style. He lent me some classic surf movies once and they were so sick. He's such a legend. O ya and Dane Reynolds is amazing right now.
9. Favorite Surf Movies: September sessions, Loose Change, Longer, The innermost Limits of pure fun, Dane reynolds first Chapter, and Computer Body.
10. Favorite Boards: Rusty's are my favorite. My favorite board is a 5' 11' rusty shaped by Roy Sanchez in 2003.
