This is your future bud ......bring more of it.......I have always enjoyed the Shred show but you seemed born to do this epic questions and gave us a new view if the surfing world and Mark Price. Thanks again. Don't stop !!!
An intelligent interviewer and interviewee. What a concept. Kudos...probably the BEST surfing related interview I've ever seen/heard. Yeah, part 2 for sure.
Let's face it. Your good at describing boards and your passion for that. You did the same here. Keep it up. It's a life saver to watch a longer shredshow session than junk on the TV especially when I am in hotels traveling for work.
For sure!! Bring it just as strong for us on Number 2 please!!! Mark Price is a fascinating, cool, wise ambassador of surfing. Loved hearing his perspectives on all the various topics. The guys pretty legendary in the surf industry listening to his career path seems like he’s definitely got perspective covered. Wasn’t aware of the man until seeing your interview with him. Glad to know about him because the guy definitely inspires me!! Thanks guys!
I know I'm late to the party, but I found that interview incredibly intriguing. Would love to see a part 2 if it hasn't already been done. I love how Price says he "limited" his choices in life. I changed university mid semester and even chose my grad school based on its proximity to the coast and have 0 regrets. Surfing is a way of life (something my wife has difficulty understanding lol). Anyway, thanks for another awesome interview Chris!
Although you could hardly hide your stoke during the interview (hell who could blame you) your questioning and interview skills were exceptional....great work again! Your onto something fresh and honest and look forward to you doing more interviews!
Paul, thanks for that! So good to hear you were stoked on this. I remember the moments before hitting upload wondering if anyone would be interested in this kind of thing. So happy everyone was / is.
Great interview. Met Mark a long time ago (during the days of our own wave pool adventure). Easily one of the smartest guys we met in the industry. Best thing though is that he still has that Clash poster in his office!
Great job. This one and the Rob Machado interview were great. All of your current and past formats have been very enjoyable and insightful. Keep it up.
Man I know Im late to the game but Loved this... my surf life changed with a baked potato and your shred show videos thank you so much. And yes would love to se a part 2
Excellent interview. I would love a part 2. Chatting to someone about the WSL would be interesting and of course you you could bag an interview with that be a hit!
I thoroughly enjoyed watching this. Extremely fascinating. Would love to see a part 2, but I don't have questions. I'd like to see an interview like this with Kelly, of course.
ha! "Every major decision in my life... the first filter I've applied is, how with this affect my surfing?!" - sounds very familiar to me! Great interview Chris, thank you.
Loved the long interview format, Chris! I would most definitely be interested to see a part two! I'm not sure if it would appeal to the overwhelming majority of viewers, but I would love to see Ryan Burch in an interview! Also, did anyone ever get those three sets of futures mentioned in a few videos back?
This is a really great video. A solid discussion about the business of surfing (distribution, product design, supply chain, shareholders, etc.) that is really interesting. Mark Price is obviously a very smart guy with a great business mind. He detailed lot of business aspects that were spot-on in this industries and many others. Good interview questions and flow as well. Bravo.
I really enjoyed this. You did a really smart, interesting interview that gives good insight into the industry. Very mature development to your channel. I enjoyed the surfboard reviews and travel episodes as well, so keep doing those too!
This is great, I would really like to see an episode where you have two opposing views in surfing. Maybe say Tomo (taking from the past and adding to the future) vs Hobie(who is preserving the past) or Danny Hess (wood boards) vs Al Merrick/DHD (performance driven)
Great format, nice to see such an articulate person talk openly about his experiences as an entrepreneur and how much risk + hard work it takes. Would love to see a part 2, maybe talk about the failure of Gotcha (what went wrong?) , how did you end up in Thailand for production of the boards, what influence has Taj Burrow had on the company and what's further ahead technology wise?
The interview was great! Mark price sounds like an extremely intelligent, experienced and well rounded individual. It was a real treat to hear him talk about his life experiences, FireWire and dealings with Kelly Slater. I would definitely enjoy seeing a part two. I think a cool topic might be rider selection. In other words, how the riders were selected or how they came about. Was it the riders interest in FireWire, or was FireWire more interested in the riders? Thank you for the interview and video. And thanks to Mark price for agreeing to the interview.
Please do a part 2 and possibly ask about the techs that firewire use in their boards Thank you so much for all the videos youve made and please keep making more STOKED
Thanks Riley, I plan to. Any specific questions about the techs I should ask? Its easy to ask general questions about FST, LFT, etc... but if you've got any detailed (I mean REALLY techie) questions I may not come up with on my own, please share.
+Shred Show Hi ShredShow just have some ideas not sure if they to open... if you ding a timbertech board how easy (if possible) it is to fix it (compared to fixing a pu or epoxy) some of there boards come in different techs how do the techs change the performance. would different techs be better for different conditions and why. does the shaper need to take the take into consideration when shaping the board ( Machado boards are all in timbertech)
Good questions and great interview. Love to see part two even if its got funky technical stuff going on. ( I actually enjoyed that homegrown aspect...very late night community broadcast DIY style:)
Love the format! Great questions and Mark Price is very compelling. Technical side: Nice camera setup and editing. On the Needs Improvement side: Focus (you know this), Sound- better microphoning (is that a word?), and lastly Seating- might be better if you guys were at similar heights. Keep on keeping on, Chris- love everything you do!
Excellent brother. Well done! Great questions. Marc Price brings so much to the table for surfing, etc. that is a true blessing for all participants.( I love how surfing is maturing and to look at where we are new vs. how it was perceived back aways is crazy.) The insights brought forth here are beneficial across other industries obviously and I learned a lot. Formats such as these are going to play a large role in benefitting the environment as the outdoor industry continues to grow. Govt. policy can and will be shaped as our lobby gains more influence. We have both a selfish and selfless role to play and I hope we all get involved in a million ways of all shapes and sizes. There's an article in the latest Outside Magazine that touches on this that I'm going to read next that should be interesting also. Keep up the great work!
First off, good for you doing great and indepth interviews. You don't see too many things like this in the surf industry. This is really amazing content. I hope you enjoyed doing it. I know you are still fleshing things out but if I were to offer some constructive criticism here is what I say, as a person who conducts interviews You prep your questions very well (The lead up to the question). But i'd say when you actually ask the question, be more concise, and brief. You explain your question a lot (which I think you do to make sure your question is understood by Mark Price) but sometimes it can pigeon hole or steer the interviewee into answering the question a certain way. Being brief also allows more freedom of discussion for the person answering the questions to go on interesting tangents. Not saying that Mark didnt do that this interview.. but just in general. Watch some Barbara Walters interviews as reference and pick and choose some techniques you like from her. Anyway, great stuff, hope you don't take my minor critique as me snubbing my nose to your content. As a content creator myself, I dig guys that are trying new things on youtube. Only trying to support! GOOD WORK!
Watching the show for a couple of weeks now. This interview got me to subscribe. Great work guys. How about getting a look behind the curtain? A video tour to the manufacturing facility!
Really great interview, thoroughly enjoyed it. I'm about to go and buy a Baked Potato today in LFT and to be honest I wasn't aware that every board was built in Thailand, but because of his unashamedness of their factory location, I don't feel the same stigma as I do for other companies. What I would love to know is more about why thailand, how they run their shaping processes, who do they employ, how did they set up and to ultimately dispel the myth of quality vs locally shaped and made.
Woo! Great episode! Mark mentions firewire as open-source.... Would be neat to see a platform where individuals can graphically build their own boards and submit them. Excluding outliers... you could combine each shape to find the median dimensions and create a TRUE open source board. Over time, theoretically, you would create a...
Great video! As a young entrepreneur, I really appreciated his insights on the industry and business in general. It'd be sick to have a part 2 and ask him about the integration of people with the skill-set to enhance his/ any surf company but they aren't directly involved in the surf industry. I.e. Working with an engineering firm, etc. just my thoughts. Awesome video again!
Really enjoyed this interview--it was especially interesting to touch on the KSWCo. and how Mark envisions the retail experience at those possible future sites. There's also so much potential to explore life beyond the coast if we bring surfing to places that aren't coastal. Would love to see you connect with scientists re. fluid / wave dynamics and what it will take to bring that wave to key areas across the world. Keep up the great work!
Awesome! I would ask him, futures Vs fcs. Not only what he rides but on a business end aswell like which company does he like working with if he has a preference. If you were to interview someone else in this style I would love to see you talk to either gerry Lopez or Ben aiapa or pin yang from town and country or maybe j.o.b all are big influences on surfing and on Hawaii. Id like to see what they think of the change in today's surfing and what they think of surfing as a whole.
Great stuff. I appreciate the solid questions, the calculated and also spontaneous answers. Just interesting to hear two humans who love what they do, have a bit of brain share.
Awesome stuff! This insider look is one of a kind! Part 2 what about Nev and his contributions and vision that has had a huge impact on modern day surfing. Maybe get Nev on? Keep up the awesome sauce!
10.0 again. However I think you may lose some of the younger audience that are unaware of the business side of surfing. Mr. Price and you come off as brilliant in my book, and the insight is valuable if one chooses to listen. Thank you very much, and continue the good work! Best of luck to all...
Awesome interview! Yes please continue the dialogue. It would be great if you could interview Shaun Thompson and encourage firrier to build and sponsor a replica of his winger pintail he so famously road behind Mark Richards at Pipeline in the barrel. I would by it!
Love the new format and I think a part two would be great. Just throwing out ideas but maybe talk about the history of surfing with someone like tom curren
excelent interview ...... I can see you know a lot more than surfboards....Mark gave very interesting insight about the business side of surfing,, I own two Firewired boards so I was interested in listening what he had to say. About the video format is great but you could do a Tim Ferris and put these interviews on a Podcast Who to interview?.....interesting people from the industry, surfers from present and past,......sports training people, apnea stuff, food and mind ....... stuff that is somehow related to people that surf......and make sure you always make rightfield questions so we all can learn new interesting stuff thank you for your work and keep doing what you are doing , Gonz
brilliant....just brilliant...yes please to part 2. one of the old guard , some one like Robert August who could provide some conversation are the history of surf and his company in the industry of today
Great interview! I've shaped many of my own boards and also love my Firewire Potatonator. I can say with great confidence that it will not be my last Firewire. A lot of the allure of surfboards comes from the artistic side of them, but at the same time the perfection of modern boards is very impressive. I'd be interested to know how Mark and Yourself feel about the more automated manufactured surfboards as opposed to the "magic" of a hand shaped board. I personally love what both offer, but thought it might be an interesting point of discussion with two people who are closer to the industry.
Loved this. I'd love to see an interview like this with Ryan Burch and Cyrus Sutton. Also, it would be damn cool to get an interview with a WSL judge. They've been sitting under the microscope for so long, but I feel I don't know much about them at all. Cheers!
Interview Tom Curren on all these different board materials and sustainability vs performance. People will listen to him for days... Otherwise Matt at Album surfboards please, he's pretty rad too. Oh and Ryan Burch if he's keen. Epic stuff as always Chris!
Wouldn't mind seeing an interview with Jeff Grygera of Iron Cross Surfboards. He's a shaper, surfer, and retailer. Pretty unique to have all three in one dude.
This is your future bud ......bring more of it.......I have always enjoyed the Shred show but you seemed born to do this epic questions and gave us a new view if the surfing world and Mark Price. Thanks again. Don't stop !!!
true words
An intelligent interviewer and interviewee. What a concept. Kudos...probably the BEST surfing related interview I've ever seen/heard. Yeah, part 2 for sure.
Let's face it. Your good at describing boards and your passion for that. You did the same here. Keep it up. It's a life saver to watch a longer shredshow session than junk on the TV especially when I am in hotels traveling for work.

The guys pretty legendary in the surf industry listening to his career path seems like he’s definitely got perspective covered. Wasn’t aware of the man until seeing your interview with him. Glad to know about him because the guy definitely inspires me!! Thanks guys!
The best Shred Show ever so far ! Next Time let Kelly join in.
Thanks for your vision..Maurice Cole/Simon Anderson..learnt so much from your shaper interviews..
this channel has become my weekly television.
Just finished with the sound cloud podcast. Love business, love surfing, love your show. Say no more
Excellent interview. He is very well spoken, and you can tell why his company has gained success.
One of the best interviews I have seen on YT recently, thanks for posting
I know I'm late to the party, but I found that interview incredibly intriguing. Would love to see a part 2 if it hasn't already been done. I love how Price says he "limited" his choices in life. I changed university mid semester and even chose my grad school based on its proximity to the coast and have 0 regrets. Surfing is a way of life (something my wife has difficulty understanding lol). Anyway, thanks for another awesome interview Chris!
Although you could hardly hide your stoke during the interview (hell who could blame you) your questioning and interview skills were exceptional....great work again!
Your onto something fresh and honest and look forward to you doing more interviews!
I was hooked for 33 minutes, interesting questions, great insights from Mark. Also it's great to see a South African run such an epic company.
Paul, thanks for that! So good to hear you were stoked on this. I remember the moments before hitting upload wondering if anyone would be interested in this kind of thing. So happy everyone was / is.
Great interview. Met Mark a long time ago (during the days of our own wave pool adventure). Easily one of the smartest guys we met in the industry. Best thing though is that he still has that Clash poster in his office!
Great job. This one and the Rob Machado interview were great. All of your current and past formats have been very enjoyable and insightful. Keep it up.
Love this Podcast format. I listen to all podcasts and i truly believe you could have the best one in the industry.
Man I know Im late to the game but Loved this... my surf life changed with a baked potato and your shred show videos thank you so much. And yes would love to se a part 2
Think this may have been my favourite Shred show episode yet... thanks man.
PS: the half South African Half 'Murican accent is hilarious :)
That was a great conversation mate, surely Maurice Cole would have to be on the list of people who you would love to talk with.
Great interview!! Would absolutely, for sure love a second one!! 🤙🏽👍🏽👌🏼👍🏽🤙🏽
Excellent interview. I would love a part 2. Chatting to someone about the WSL would be interesting and of course you you could bag an interview with that be a hit!
I thoroughly enjoyed watching this. Extremely fascinating. Would love to see a part 2, but I don't have questions. I'd like to see an interview like this with Kelly, of course.
Yes please - it'd be great if you could interview him again. His business experiences would be great to hear more about.
Absolutely want to see a part 2!
Yes part 2 please, there's so many interesting people out there go get em
Awesome video. Love the longer format and interview style.
WOW! this PODCAST thing is a great idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you for your work!!! I believe I DID learn a lot from watching all your videos!!!
Great interview Chris...absolutely enjoyed the insight. Go for a follow up session.
Good interview and would watch this type of Q&A again in the future.
ha! "Every major decision in my life... the first filter I've applied is, how with this affect my surfing?!" - sounds very familiar to me! Great interview Chris, thank you.
Absolutely loved that interview . Last 3 segments have been great!
Compelling interview. Always enjoyed listening to price-same with bob Hurley- so much insight
Loved the long interview format, Chris! I would most definitely be interested to see a part two! I'm not sure if it would appeal to the overwhelming majority of viewers, but I would love to see Ryan Burch in an interview! Also, did anyone ever get those three sets of futures mentioned in a few videos back?

I feel your stoke in this video! Great interview Chris!
Thank you!honestly man,amazing interview,súper interesting.
I really enjoyed this. You did a really smart, interesting interview that gives good insight into the industry. Very mature development to your channel. I enjoyed the surfboard reviews and travel episodes as well, so keep doing those too!
Excellent commentary on the industry. Love my Cornice. Right on MP🤘🏻🤘🏻
This was amazing he seems such a lovely thoughtful guy, very interesting more episodes would be great
Thanks for the feedback!
Great Questions Man!
Very well done interview.
Yeeew! Part 2 please! Oh and interview Kelly.
Can't comment on what questions to ask part 2. I can only comment that part 1 was eye opening, in depth and a great interview! 👍
This was great man! Keep it up 🤘🏼
This is great, I would really like to see an episode where you have two opposing views in surfing. Maybe say Tomo (taking from the past and adding to the future) vs Hobie(who is preserving the past) or Danny Hess (wood boards) vs Al Merrick/DHD (performance driven)
Nice change of pace, very informative and still entertaining!
Really cool interview with someone that seems smart and connected to what's int he future of the industry.. great stuff!
Mind blown! Questions were as interesting as the answers.
Great format, nice to see such an articulate person talk openly about his experiences as an entrepreneur and how much risk + hard work it takes. Would love to see a part 2, maybe talk about the failure of Gotcha (what went wrong?) , how did you end up in Thailand for production of the boards, what influence has Taj Burrow had on the company and what's further ahead technology wise?
I must say that I love all the the interviews that you've done, long or short I think they are really interesting. part 2 I'm on it.
excelente interview. excelente inside vision of the surfing business. keep it coming!!
Dude this was a fucking brilliant interview. I'm not even that interested in surf board manufacturing but it was still interesting. Great questions.
Thanks! Will make more of them.
Very good questioning!
Excellent. Part 2 please.
The interview was great! Mark price sounds like an extremely intelligent, experienced and well rounded individual. It was a real treat to hear him talk about his life experiences, FireWire and dealings with Kelly Slater. I would definitely enjoy seeing a part two.

some of there boards come in different techs how do the techs change the performance.
would different techs be better for different conditions and why.

Good questions and great interview. Love to see part two even if its got funky technical stuff going on. ( I actually enjoyed that homegrown aspect...very late night community broadcast DIY style:)
Very interesting Chris!! Like that you mix it up:)
Defos wanna see part 2! I'll leave the questions to you cause the ones on this video were great!
Fantastic interview. Loving what this brand stands for more and more. Perhaps interview TJ and Wingnut, and show some longboarders some love. Cheers.
Love the format! Great questions and Mark Price is very compelling. Technical side: Nice camera setup and editing. On the Needs Improvement side: Focus (you know this), Sound- better microphoning (is that a word?), and lastly Seating- might be better if you guys were at similar heights.

Top interview, not often we see in depth, challenging stuff when it comes to surfing.
Funny thing is, I dropped out of a marine engineering degree for exactly the same reason!
great work! would you post the full inteview?tnx
This is a great show.
Really enjoyed this interview--it was especially interesting to touch on the KSWCo. and how Mark envisions the retail experience at those possible future sites.

really liked it keep up the good work
really enjoyable, there is a clear gap in this market for your style, creativity and ambition..... I wish you all the best, keep it coming!
Great stuff. I appreciate the solid questions, the calculated and also spontaneous answers. Just interesting to hear two humans who love what they do, have a bit of brain share.
Mark Price is a very wise and smart guy!
Awesome stuff! This insider look is one of a kind! Part 2 what about Nev and his contributions and vision that has had a huge impact on modern day surfing. Maybe get Nev on? Keep up the awesome sauce!

great interview, would be keen to hear bob Hurley talk about the same topics and contributing so much to sponsorships with the Hurley surf team etc..
Awesome interview! Yes please continue the dialogue.
It would be great if you could interview Shaun Thompson and encourage firrier to build and sponsor a replica of his winger pintail he so famously road behind Mark Richards at Pipeline in the barrel. I would by it!
Love the new format and I think a part two would be great. Just throwing out ideas but maybe talk about the history of surfing with someone like tom curren
Keep it up. Great interview. Marks the man, the dude straight rips.
@kahi Pacarro - Thanks for the trash tents. Great thinking. I dig them.
excelent interview ...... I can see you know a lot more than surfboards....Mark gave very interesting insight about the business side of surfing,, I own two Firewired boards so I was interested in listening what he had to say.
About the video format is great but you could do a Tim Ferris and put these interviews on a Podcast
Who to interview?.....interesting people from the industry, surfers from present and past,......sports training people, apnea stuff, food and mind ....... stuff that is somehow related to people that surf......and make sure you always make rightfield questions so we all can learn new interesting stuff
thank you for your work and keep doing what you are doing , Gonz
Brilliant !!!
brilliant....just brilliant...yes please to part 2. one of the old guard , some one like Robert August who could provide some conversation are the history of surf and his company in the industry of today
Very cool! Interview Slater haha
Great Job brother
Amazing listen!! i love these videos man! Any thought of getting SUPER brand on the show?
Great interview! I've shaped many of my own boards and also love my Firewire Potatonator. I can say with great confidence that it will not be my last Firewire.
A lot of the allure of surfboards comes from the artistic side of them, but at the same time the perfection of modern boards is very impressive. I'd be interested to know how Mark and Yourself feel about the more automated manufactured surfboards as opposed to the "magic" of a hand shaped board. I personally love what both offer, but thought it might be an interesting point of discussion with two people who are closer to the industry.
Woo. Gonna have to watch this on wifi before my data limit goes crazy. Lol
Loved this. I'd love to see an interview like this with Ryan Burch and Cyrus Sutton. Also, it would be damn cool to get an interview with a WSL judge. They've been sitting under the microscope for so long, but I feel I don't know much about them at all.
Cheers!
Good idea!!! WSL judge would be awesome.
Any input on the Von Sol Flying Manta? Looks like an interesting groveler shape.
Interview Tom Curren on all these different board materials and sustainability vs performance. People will listen to him for days... Otherwise Matt at Album surfboards please, he's pretty rad too. Oh and Ryan Burch if he's keen. Epic stuff as always Chris!
Wouldn't mind seeing an interview with Jeff Grygera of Iron Cross Surfboards. He's a shaper, surfer, and retailer. Pretty unique to have all three in one dude.
Very good conversation!!!
Your dog man. Amazing.
Thanks!
