In addition to his affinity for the water, Laird is labeled as an inventor, author, stunt man, model, producer, TV host, fitness and nutrition expert, husband, father, and adrenaline junkie.

A renowned innovator and guiding genius of crossover board sports including tow-in-surfing, stand-up paddle boarding, and hydrofoil boarding, Laird is the essential Water Man, continuously pushing the limits and expanding all possibilities.

Over the last decade, Laird has transcended from surfing to becoming an international fitness icon and nutrition expert. Many of today’s top professional athletes and celebrities look to Laird for training guidance, including instruction in his unique underwater resistance workouts.
