He’s not only an experienced waterman but a great addition to our safety crew. Here I’m pulling @real_deal_richardson into an inside line while Chad’s running 1st tier safety on the shoulder while I run out and around the back.  On the cliff keeping a watchful eye is our spotter and EMT @matt.ledoux along with  Casey @pnw_surfing our drone lord. Also a special  thanks to Gabe Smith @nelscottreefsurf for housing support and a great after session feast!

Team work makes the dream work and keeps everyone alive!
