    Episode 145 - HUGE SPECIAL GUEST - We are joined by head shaper of XOCOCO. Avalon Starick

    This is an episode you CANT miss. We are joined by Avalon Starick, the genius behind xococo surfboards.

    Having the chance to speak with Avalon was an honour. We talk about her early days in the surf industry, how she managed to forge out an opportunity to shape, who helped her and gave her a chance and then how that has led to being the lead shaper for the rapidly growing and extremely exciting brand that is xococo.

    We also chat about how it is to work with Coco Ho, what Avalon tries to learn from Matt Parker of Album surfboards, what waves Avalon likes, the boards she rides and so much more!

    This could have been a 5 hour chat, it was that easy to just have a casual conversation, but as we don't pay for Zoom here is 40 mins!

    Please share, enjoy and download.
