He talks about surfing contest and making NSSA National Team, and how it happened pretty quickly. Gary recounts his first trip to Hawaii, he remembers having a killer quiver of Bruce Jones single fins, and how beautiful they were.

He tells us about the horrible car accident he was in, and after being out of the water for awhile P.T. helped him back to surfing.
