For episode 1, we sit down with one of the riders who is at the forefront of progression in surfing: John Akerman. John has been a part of the Phase 5 team for years now and for good reason – he not only rips in every aspect on the water but off, he’s as humble and down to earth as they come. Starting his career as an ocean skimboarder for Zap Skimboards (sister company to Phase 5), John quickly found success in wakesurfing once he found himself behind the boat. In this episode, we take a look back at John’s roots, swap some stories about contests, events, photoshoots and other epic times, chat about the future of the sport through John’s eyes, and more!
