What’s still on your bucket list?

Travel to Indonesia to surf. They have some of the

best waves in the world. Another thing on my bucket

list is fi nding the right sponsor to be able to run on

the tour full time.

Ed McCulloch. He has always been one of my

favorite drivers and he’s a legend.
Ìý

Surfl ine. It has all the surf reports from all over the

world. It’s the only app I use on my phone.
Ìý

Cheese, jalapenos, and sliced tomatoes.
Ìý

Cabo San Lucas. I’ve already been there a few timesÌýthis year.
Ìý

Donald Trump. He’s an interesting guy, and I’d likeÌýto figure out how he does his hair so I can do thatÌýwhen I get older.
Ìý

KISS and Aerosmith in Las Vegas. I was front row.

My mom took me to Lions Drag Strip when I was 2Ìýweeks old. She said that I was smiling the wholeÌýnight. That’s where it started, but I was probablyÌýaround 11 or 12 when I realized I was hooked.
Ìý

Typically I’m way too mellow, so I’ve been trying toÌýlearn how to pump myself up. I’ll listen to music,Ìýyell at my crew, or drink coffee. I don’t normallyÌýdrink coffee, so it will get me wired. I’m just wayÌýtoo relaxed.
