Florence Marine X wants you.

The team at FMX are listeners of Surf Splendor,

and they want like-minded individuals to help them test their products in the elements.

So John John is obviously the key test pilot, but his needs are different than mine.

And they want to know what your needs are.

And so here's a quick word from one of their current test pilots. He's a former windsurfer

who lives on the North Shore. His name's Craig Yester. I actually bought products the very first day

you guys sold them back in May. And down the line when said oh we're looking for

test pilots for like well yeah for sure um so i signed up my son-in-law and me and we're like yeah let's do

this and then they get the call was like bro i was like getting it was like being on the bachelor

and getting the rose or something you know you're like no ways and then i stopped a while i started to realize rob it's easy for you're not so you're know, you're like, no, ways.

And then I stopped a while.

I started to realize, Rob, it's easy for these companies to go out and get an athlete

that rips.

These companies need somebody that's going to tell them about why their product is good

or why their product isn't working.

And so it just seemed as like a no-brainer that you're getting Joe regular guy to use your products and then give you feedback as opposed to the guys that are ripping a back door or whatever, you know?

And yeah, and to really value what we have to say and listen and then without being too proud of ourselves,

we're ground flooring this thing, and it's pretty rad. I mean, I can't wait to see this brand five, ten, 15 years from now and know that it's going to be here. And not like here people go, oh, well, it's really hard to launch an apparel brand. I'm sure it is. That's why maybe people don't do it, but it's hard to do a lot of things in life. But if you

push through and you persevere, then you're going to have, you're going to have something you can really be proud of. And that, I think that's where we all are. And like I say, when I got the email that you guys invited me to be a test pilot, I was what? And then I looked up all these other acts that are also test pilots. I'm like, those guys are nuts. Are you kidding me? America's

Cup Sailor. And then I looked up all these other cats that are also test pilots. I'm like, those guys are nuts.

Are you kidding me?
