Our guest this week comes from a Surf Family and got introduced to surfing at the age of 2. So it is no surprise that he was destined for greatness on a surfboard. He has put in more time than just about anyone at Lowers. This young buck has a couple of WQS wins under his belt, but recently just came off a Huge Win and Biggest thus far in his Career, at a QS 3000 Event in Japan.

The boys were all set for a rousing hour of conversation with one of their favorite P.R. and Advertising  men, Marty Schorr, formerly of Motion Performance, when technical difficulties struck. Having Billy G. in the meeting kept the show alive, and Marty was eventually able to join in and talk about his upcoming "Team Zora" Motorsports Corvette reunion to be held in Italy next year.  A caller tells a story of how he regularly sees an original Motion BelAir in one of our local towns and naturally we want to know more about it.
