When I was nine, I was taught to ride a surfboard in Waikiki by the beach boy Rabbit Kekai.
It's weird, I grew up in California, and I've only surfed, like, once.
I was 45 years old when I decided to learn how to surf.
In the past, I had these really high-tech boardshorts.
Many beach locales offer surf lessons, and you get a different perspective of the ocean when you're out on the water.
If you give me six tries, I can probably land a kick flip.
I've lived in California for six years and I've never surfed.
Snowboarding is skateboarding without the wheels, just on snow. It's the same thing, just that one is on hard ground with the wheels, the other is on snow. You just have to know how to maneuver your board and do things you want to do.
I am a surfer, though quite a poor one.
I like surfers. Their imagery, it's great.
Surprisingly, I am great at kiteboarding, but I'm not great at surfing.
I'm a longboard guy.
I'm excited to go surfing every time. I have fun in any kind of wave in the ocean.
Surfing is incredible. It's both meditative and physical. I think it was my way into California.
When I was younger, I used to be a part of the surfing-and-skateboarding community.
Surfing - I have to go surfing.
I got to learn to surf.
My dad got me a huge board when I was little. He loves to surf. He suited me up and sent me out on this huge wave. I went under, and when I came out and the board hit me in the face. So I said, I never wanted to do this again. I stayed away until I was 13.
There's also a lot of skateboard stuff, because I was a skateboarder. Somewhere around here I have one of my original boards.
I used to surf up in Ventura County at Silver Strand; plus, I've played up there many times.
I'd like to go away for six months and learn to kiteboard and windsurf. I love pinochle, I love chess and I love windsurfing.
Surfing is definitely something I used to do a lot more before I was working, but I know the waves will always be there, and it's something that, when I'm not traveling as much, I'll definitely get back into.
I surfed competitively from age 13 to 18. Every day, before and after school. I wanted to surf for the rest of my life. It's what all my friends did - I even had it as a subject in school for a number of years.
Rock climbing and surfing are two of my favorite things in life.
Surfing waves of water or clouds of powder snow is the best feeling on earth.
