Dave Allee of Almond Surfboards: Even 2 ft waves can be firing
Manage episode 404780876 series 3468589
In this podcast I interviewed Dave Allee the founder of @almondsurfboards and talked about how with the right attitude and the right equipment, even 2 ft can be firing, which is their company ethos. It’s a super interesting discussion about the right craft for small waves including midlengths, longboards, and single fins.
