Seabass made a name for himself a few years back, pulling into some heavy waves at Off The Wall and Backdoor. Those antics earned him a good sponsorship with Oakley, affording him the opportunity to travel the world on the ASP circuit, gathering points to ultimately come home to Hawaii and surf the Triple Crown. He's a funny guy, always ready for action, and we caught him at the water's edge, with a favorite board, on the way out to his North Shore stomping grounds.
"This is my new custom shape, that will be my model. It doesn't even have a name yet. I've been working with Boysen for 5 or 6 years now, so my boards are pretty dialed in. It's 6'0" x 18 3/4" x 2 1/4" and I'm riding the F4 Techflex. They're a new fin for me, but they really feel sick. There's a lot of hold, which is cool because they're small, and you can really blow the tail. They're really light, and just come through moves so easily. All year I've been riding AM1s. It's a really good fin for all around surfing in beach breaks, and when it gets a little bigger I'll use the AM2. But, I'm pretty hyped on these F4s now too."
