Kris kicks things off by giving us a glimpse into their backgrounds, setting the stage for a fascinating discussion.

Kris gets into the captivating origins of Hobie, tracing back to its humble beginnings in his father's garage.

From there, he guides us through the rich history of Hobie, highlighting the groundbreaking collaboration with Clark Foam that revolutionized surfboard foam. Adam jumps in, sharing his passion for crafting boards, particularly longboards, and the joy they find in working closely with the Longboard Coalition, nurturing and expanding the vibrant Longboard community.
