Hello and welcome back to Surf Splendor.

This is, of course, your host, David Scales.

I've got an episode, brand new episode today, of Grit with Chas Smith.

So I'm sure that you figured it out or just by listening to

past episodes of this uh of this particular show format but grit is designed to give you a

peek behind the curtain of beachgrit dot com obviously beachgrit dot com is run by chas smith and his

partner derrick riley and so our goal here is just to kind of discuss the various articles the beach grit.com is run by Chass Smith and his partner Derek Riley.

And so our goal here is just to kind of discuss the various articles, the subtext,

the conversations that take place after articles get posted, all that sort of stuff.

So enjoy this show.

I'll be back actually later in this week with an episode of Shaping Surfing with Dane Hans.

You might not know Dane's name, but his,

but his label is Vulcan Surf. So if you're on Instagram or you follow board porn, I'm sure that you've seen Dane's boards. At Vulcan Surf is their actual handle. Definitely check those out

before I post that episode. So you have kind of a context for what we're

talking about but super interesting dude I didn't really know what to expect I had never met him

before but I was thrilled by the end of the interview not only to know him but to be able to share

that conversation with you guys so that'll be out on Thursday coming weeks I have episodes with

filmmaker Jack Coleman and surfboard shaper Ryan Lovelace as well.

Those conversations are already in the can.

So look forward to those on this, the Surf Splendor Network of Podcasts at this point.

So enjoy today's show with Chas Smith.

You can follow, of course, his website, beachgrit.com, and then on Instagram,
