Our guest this week is a ripper, an OG Huntington Beach legend, an industry veteran, and a savvy entrepreneur. He was an original Hurley Surfboards team rider and a close friend of Bob Hurley,  who helped co-found Billabong USA in 1983.

Chip became heavily involved in the business, running sales and helping open national and international wholesale accounts. After selling his financial stake in Billabong, he traveled and surfed his way around the world. Eventually, he found a way to mix business with pleasure, creating an import and wholesale company that brought unique goods from around the globe to action-sports retailers.

He also co-founded Java Jungle, the iconic Huntington Beach coffee shop at 5th and PCH, and later launched Soul Clothing and Surf Shop in the early ’90s and has done so much more!  He’s been on our hit list for quite some time, and we’re beyond stoked to finally hear his incredible journey. We welcome to the show, Jasper “CHIPPA SLIPPA” Rowland!

Our guest this week is another Newport Beach standout who has carved his own path and always done things his own way!

He became a poster child for Volcom at a very young age, dominated the amateur and Pro Junior events, and appeared destined to become Southern California’s next surfing superstar. His surfing is calm, stylish, and effortless, but the end result is explosive, incredible speed, raw power, and massive tweaked-out blow-tail lip slides. But his creativity extends far beyond Surfing. He shapes boards and is one of the few Surfers to win professional contests riding his own shapes. He also plays guitar, formed a metal band, and creates Surf films.

Alcohol, drugs, and partying eventually took him down a dark path.  Fortunately, he got help, found sobriety, and with support from Dane Reynolds, earned a second chance as a Pro Surfer.

We’re huge fans, we’re stoked to see him thriving, and we can’t wait to hear about his wild journey.  Please welcome Andrew “DROID” Doheny, also known as SLOBCRAFT Surfboards to the show!

Our guest this week is one of the most influential and progressive surfers of the last two decades. Fresh off being inducted into the Huntington Beach Surfing Walk of Fame—congratulations! What an incredible honor, and one that's well deserved. He's also recovering from hip and knee surgery, which honestly comes as no surprise after years of launching massive airs and laying down some of the most powerful, progressive turns we've ever seen.

With 19 years on the Championship Tour, eight CT victories, and multiple Top 5 and runner-up finishes, he's put together one of the most impressive careers of his generation. His iconic film parts in Modern Collective, Stranger Than Fiction, and Bending Colours helped redefine progressive surfing, and he's still pushing the limits today. If you haven't seen his latest edits from South Africa and Réunion Island, you're blowing it! Head over to Stab Magazine or YouTube and check out some of the best free surfing on the planet. We're fired up to talk about his incredible career, life on tour, filming, recovery, and what's next. Please welcome to the show, Mr. Jordy Smith!

Our guest this week is an American-Australian who grew up right here in Huntington Beach, born into one of Surfing's most iconic families. As the son of the first-ever World Surfing Champion, Peter "PT" Townend, he was surrounded by the sport, culture, and industry from day one. But instead of simply following in his father's footsteps, he carved out his own impressive path, working in surf media and holding sales and leadership roles with Ocean & Earth, Rhythm, Surfline, and Boardriders, while also co-founding the popular Vacancy Coffee Bar. Taking advantage of his dual citizenship, he later moved back to Australia, earned his commercial pilot's license, and now flies professionally. We're stoked to hear his incredible journey. Please welcome to the show, Mr. Jye Townend!

Our guest this week is one of Korea's brightest rising stars in surfing. He's one of the few athletes competing at a high level in both the shortboard and longboard divisions. Last year, he captured the Siheung Korea Open Longboard title and backed it up with an impressive equal 5th-place finish in a QS 6000 event. He's also another talented student of WaveKi under Sensei Brad Gerlach, taking his surfing and competitive mindset to the next level.

It's incredible to see how much surfing has grown throughout the Asia-Pacific region, especially in Korea, with an emerging generation of world-class surfers, international events, and even the impressive WaveGarden Seoul helping fuel the next wave of talent. We're excited to hear about his journey, what it's like growing up in Korea's surf culture, and what the future holds for Korean surfing.

Please welcome to the show,  Kanoa Hee-Jae.

Our guests this week are one of Huntington Beach's hottest rising reggae bands, and they've been making serious noise on the local music scene over the last few years. Drawing inspiration from reggae legends while blending in influences from across the musical spectrum, their mission is simple, stay versatile, write killer music, and have a damn good time doing it. They've already shared the stage at the Sublime Festival in Portland,  a regular on Reggae Sunday’s at “SeaLegs”, and they just rocked the I FORGET Airshow After Party!  We're stoked to welcome to the show the boys from Nice and Swell!

Our guest this week is from Newport Beach, where he made a name for himself dominating the NSSA ranks and charging The Wedge at an age when most kids were just learning to paddle out. For years, he's been one of the standout Surfers in the lineup and is widely regarded as one of Newport Beach's brightest hopes for the Championship Tour.

Over the past few seasons, he's been making a serious push on the WQS, and with the guidance of Brad Gerlach and WaveKi, his Surfing, strategy, and competitive mindset have reached a whole new level. Fresh off a huge victory at the Jack's Surfboards Pro in Huntington Beach just a couple of months ago, he's carrying major momentum into this season as he chases qualification for the Challenger Series.

We're fired up to hear about his journey, his game plan, and what it's really like chasing the dream at the highest level. Please welcome to the show, Mr. Parker Cohn.

Our guest this week emerged as a prominent figure in Skateboarding during the 90’s, captivating audiences with his innovative style and technical mastery in both Street and Transition skating. From legendary video parts in classics like Interface, Cinematographer, and many others, to decades of respected contributions to skateboarding culture, he helped shape the look and feel of modern street skating while earning the admiration of generations of riders.  

But these days, his passion extends beyond Skateboarding. As the founder and owner of Aquillux Filtration Systems, he’s focused on helping families live healthier through premium whole-home water filtration and under-sink alkaline drinking water systems. Their systems are designed to soften and filter municipal water while restoring essential minerals to elevate pH levels for cleaner, healthier, and better-tasting hydration.

From Skateboarding and Surfing to Entrepreneurship and clean water, we’re looking forward to covering it all with a true original.

We welcome to the show Mr. Dan Rogers. 🌊🛹💧

We sat down and talk with Max "SLAMBERT" Lambert and Dane "THE DIRECTOR" Hart about the 3rd Annual IFORGET AIRSHOW and their upcoming Surf Film.

Our guest this week is one of the most recognizable and fiercest competitors the sport of Surfing has ever seen. He turned Professional at just 14 years old and quickly built a reputation for charging hard, Surfing with incredible power, and refusing to back down from anyone in a jersey. Along the way, he stacked up major victories, including the OP Pro and the iconic Bells Beach Pro, cementing his place among Surfing’s elite. Growing up in Newport Beach, he was surrounded by the sport thanks to his father, legendary shaper Lance Collins of Wave Tools Surfboards, whose factory was a magnet for many of the biggest names in Surfing. We’re pumped to hear the stories behind an incredible career and welcome to the show Mr. Richie “SKELETOR” Collins.
