Thanks Spyder Surfshop for gathering the tribe each year!We got to sit down with Surf Industry Legend, Scott "LONEWOLF" Daley and Southbay Royalty, Richard "DICKIE" O'Reilly.

October 26, 2021 was the last time we sat down with “THE GOAT”.  At that time we decided that we would do a series of interviews and take our time in really diving deep into his stories. Of course, trying to schedule something with “THE GOAT” is next to impossible. . Last week we got to “MIX BUSINESS WITH PLEASURE”. It’s awesome how things come together sometimes.
