Please be slow to judge ‘brothers’ who have a different calling.

Hope is not something you can just place in your back pocket or put your fingers around – it’s the belief in a world that has yet to exist.

I wanna be a part of the generation that throws out money, throws out time, throws out all that we are against something bigger than ourselves.

Usually for me, the melodic structures come out in the water and the lyrical ideas could come from a book I'm reading.

I look for places where there's no one out on the water. I'd rather surf a wave to myself than fight a crowd.

Eventually everything fails me, but when I look at the sunset or the sky, I'm reminded what it's like to be alive.

I think surfing and music are both places of release and self expression where there are no rules, and you can find a different form of freedom that you can't anywhere else.
