- Surf Talk
Just the past weekend I was given the opportunity to give a talk at The Reform Club in Amagansett. It was such an honor and pleasure to do. I made sure to film and record it so I could share it with all my virtual team members. I had a million ideas going through my mind on what would be the best topic, and ultimately I landed on, “If you want to go fast, go slow”, because it is a subject that is near and dear to me and my progression as a surfer and in life. I hope you enjoy it!
