Ian grew up steps from the sand at Newport River Jetties, literally from day one. He got his first board at four years old and has been surfing ever since. He moved to San Clemente at age nine, where he went to Concordia Elementary and was in class with Kolohe in fifth grade. Early on, he played every sport, as he explains he was an aggro, pissed-off little athlete stud kid. But once he started surfing in contests, he focused 100% on surfing and competing. He did NSSA events, the HB Surf Series, and WSAs. By middle school at Shorecliffs, his crew was Kolohe Andino, Luke Davis, and Tanner Rozunko, and they were in the water every day frothing and comping out. Fast forward a few years, and he was putting all his effort into qualifying for the CT, which led to the opportunity to get sponsored by O’Neill and live his dream: traveling the world, surfing the best waves, and getting paid to do it. He recently got married, and now he gets to travel the world with his wife and I mean, how does it get any better than that, ladies and gentlemen? Ian has been stoked on surfing his whole life, and it’s so cool to have him on the show sharing his life story with us. It’s truly inspiring to see him and hear his stories when he’s not globetrotting, doing the thing he loves most.

Brother talks about getting his first board at 6 years old and how much he looked up to Mason Ho, who was full-on doing contests at the time. He tells me about being a grom and meeting Taj Burrow right around the time of his 𝑀𝑜𝑛𝑡𝑎𝑗 movie, and how stoked he was when Taj remembered his name, Kolohe. Brother won 9 NSSA titles and 5 U.S. Championships before making the CT at 17 years old, surfing against Taj Burrow, Joel Parkinson, Mick Fanning, and Kelly Slater right out of the gate. Meanwhile, his peers John John Florence and Gabriel Medina were already on tour killing it. He did the tour for well over a decade. I asked him about his film 𝑅𝑒𝑐𝑘𝑙𝑒𝑠𝑠 𝐼𝑠𝑜𝑙𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 and some of his latest surf-porn projects, 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝐿𝑎𝑡𝑒 𝐺𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑡 𝑌𝑜𝑢𝑡ℎ, 𝑆𝑚𝑜𝑜𝑐ℎ, and 𝐻𝑖𝑗𝑖𝑛𝑥. He tells me his top five favorite surfers of all time and the names of the groms he sees blowing up nowadays, kids like King Nicol, Zion Walla, Moses Hennings, Henry Mullin, and Hayden Rodgers. Nowadays, he’s raising his family, he just had his third kid, runs his brand Steko, and surfs every day, considering surfing is his medicine.

All I really knew about Reef prior to him cruising by our studio was that he was a physically tall dude who hailed from the Garden Isle and made a name for himself on the North Shore pulling into monster-size death pits at Pipe and Backdoor. I knew of him winning not only “Wave of the Winter” in 2011 but also “Wave of the Decade” nine years later. I mean, it's not every day I’ve got a guy walking into our studio who has won “Wave of the Decade”! In fact, I'm pretty certain they've only awarded “Wave of the Decade” once so far. But I’ve gotta say, talking with Reef was nothing short of a super cool vibe and experience, as he is one of the nicest guys you could ever meet. I think anyone who watches and listens to his story will share my viewpoint about this man. And hey, how insane is that wave he got at Off The Wall? I personally think it's the biggest, deepest, gnarliest wave I've ever seen ridden at one of the scariest spots on the planet.

After a few weeks of navigating our busy Southern California lifestyles, we finally set a date and time for Nate's episode. But on the morning of, Nate found himself within striking distance of a crazed gunman running around all koo-koo for Cocoa Puffs, smack dab in the center of what is normally our quiet little beach town. Naturally, affected by the incident, as anyone would be, Nate rings me up a bit frazzled and floats the idea of a possible rescheduling. What ensues here is the episode we recorded literally an hour after that freak show with the gun. I explained to Nate, “Why don’t we just run with the energy of the morning and get in the studio straightaway, Mr.?” So, he sucked it up like the rad human that he is, and we got to it. Without further ado, let me introduce to you, my super-cool, surf-crazed, thriving-on-life audience, Nate Yeomans’ episode, where Nate will proceed to tell us all about his morning and so much more. Oh, and there's even a special appearance by the elusive Nasty Nate. But don’t tell anyone I said so. Ha ha!

Mark first started going to Hawaii at five years old and remembers surfing in Waikiki at a spot called “The Wall.” It was a spot, as he recalls, his good friend Buttons surfed growing up too. Fast-forward a few years: at 14 years old he met Christian and Nathan down at Salt Creek one day and, strangely enough, as fate would have it, the very next day he moved to Beach Road, two doors down from the Hoffmans’ house, where Christian and Nathan were every day because it was their grandparents’ home, literally right on the sand in front of the waves at “Poche.” But in between his first wave in Waikiki and meeting the Fletcher brothers, he got his first motocross bike at nine years old. He loved racing motocross, and by 12 he was racing at the San Diego Sports Arena, Jack Murphy Stadium, Anaheim Stadium, and the L.A. Coliseum. But due to people becoming sue-happy, the tracks all closed down within a few years. Surfing eventually pulled him away, and living at the beach, combined with his love for the ocean, made it only natural that surfing would become a major force in his life, as it did. This is the intro to quite an interesting and compelling life story of one of action sports’ most likeable and enigmatic personalities. So, if you’d be stoked to see how the whole story unfolds, sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride, ladies and gentlemen, because there’s a lot more to Mark’s story, something both inspiring and entertaining.

Cameron Steele is a busy man, to put it mildly. As he says, “Jack of all trades, master of none.”Between his race team, Desert Assassins, his company, Baja HQ, and hosting various off-road racing TV shows, he’s definitely got his hands full.

But let’s go back to the beginning. His mom always loved the beach and started taking him there when he was knee-high to a grasshopper. His dad had him out on a motocross bike by the time he was five years old. With his love for the beach and the ocean, he became a pro boogie boarder at a time when the sport was blowing up. He and his friend Keith Sasaki, along with a few others, were showing the world what could be done on what we surfers call a “sponge.”

At one point, though, Cameron put down the boogie board and began racing motocross. From there, it was a natural evolution into racing unlimited trucks, something he’s now been doing for over two decades. Throw in hosting gigs for ESPN and just about any network willing to “play ball” with these dirt mongrels, and you could say he’s been off to the races ever since.

He tells me that no matter the sport, boogie boarding, motocross, or off-road racing, he’s always competed to win. He raced Supercross at Anaheim Stadium in 1992 and, as he says, “Here I am 22 years later, still racing unlimited trucks at the highest level.” Cameron shared that they’ve already won two races this year, and it’s clear he’s found his greatest athletic success in off-road racing.

He also shared his top five favorite surfers of all time, and yes, I even managed to get him to name his top five favorite skaters, too. Such a cool episode, and I’m confident anyone who listens will be inspired, because Cameron’s story is nothing short of inspiring.

Paulo was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and raised in a small surfing town called Barra de Tijuca. At 2½ years old, his mom had already started teaching him to swim. He played soccer from a very young age, as he explains all kids do in Brazil. He was also very into basketball, playing point guard up through his teenage years, and at 13 years old, he was the third highest-ranked three-point shooter in Rio. He got into boogie boarding at age 11 and enjoyed it, as he says boogie boarding was pretty big in Brazil at the time. A friend gave him his first surfboard, a 6'5" thruster, by junior high school, which he says was a pretty tough transition. But he knew it was time to stand up and get barreled, which he loves doing to this day. In seventh grade, he says there was a guy who was bullying his two best friends. Soon enough, this guy turned his attention to Paulo, who was 13 years old at the time. At school, the bully came looking for Paulo in his classroom and told him to meet outside at recess, where he and three of his friends got violent, four-on-one style. So, Paulo decided enough was enough and went to find a martial arts dojo. The first one he found was a karate studio, but he saw the bully training there. So, he left to look elsewhere. Eventually, he found a jiu-jitsu school and the rest is history, as they say.
