I started surfing at the age of 10, and then turned professional at the age of 16, which was right around the same time I took up the guitar. So, the surfing came first.
Donavon FrankenreiterMy wife really pushed me in that direction, to write my own songs and start singing, so I think having the whole family thing is such a huge thing.
Donavon FrankenreiterI grew up in Orange County, California, all over the beaches of San Clemente and that area.
Donavon FrankenreiterThe things I try to do with Surfrider Foundation, SurfAid, Love Hope Strength, which is a cancer foundation, I try to do as many benefits and fundraising things as I possibly can. It's so important, if you have any kind of a voice, or any way to make a difference, to do that. So, I'm trying to do that, and have fun in the moment, and live life, and hope it all comes together.
