Greg Geiselman, an immigrant from the Bahamas, dropped out of a full-ride swimming scholarship as a result of a full-blown case of the surfing disease. Nothing would get in his way. He possesses the gift of absolute discipline and focus. From swimming at a world-class level to months-long Mexico runs, to shaping blanks and running the first East Coast shaping machine, he created Orion Surfboards, one of the most successful local brands to endure generations of surfers' demand. Sons Eric and Evan have put dad's sleds on full display. Enjoy Greg's compelling story. Frank Gilday joins as guest host.
