Surfer Dudes-Long Beach Larry & Finley

Grew up New Jersey, spent his summers on LBI learning to surf. Found out LBI stood for Long Beach Island though no one ever calls it Long Beach. Soon discovered there were lots of places called Long Beach, all of them with great and different surfin' conditions. Vowed to make it his life's work to visit every Long Beach in the world. Graduate of Drexel University with a degree in engineering, a Navy pilot, flew with the Blue Angels. His personal journeys take him to South America, Australia, South Africa, and throughout North America. Known worldwide for his patriotic surfboards.
