Nathan Fletcher on the dance between grief and greatness, and nonconformity

Season 02: Episode 05 of Soundings With Jamie Brisick
From a family of world-renowned surfers, Nathan Fletcher was fated to push limits. His fire for big waves and airs have established him as a leading innovator within the sport. In this episode, he discusses the secrets to aging gracefully as a professional athlete, what drives him in heavy water, how motocross and skating have helped him assess both pain and risk, and the precarious tension between living in the moment and finding who you are.

I love these, living in San Clemente I'm from Lousiana. San Clemente reminds me of home small town but instead of football we bond over waves. Shred Up always respect the locals
