We talked with Christian Willerth, who studied economics at the University of California at Berkeley, founded the Berkeley Surf Team, and has a successful surfboard company named Big Carl Surfboards.

We talked about our experience at Berkeley, the culture shock, shaping boards, tips for scaling a business, his adventures in Baja California, and the reason behind the name "Big Carl Surfboards."
