  • Corky Carroll?

    Jamie, I love listening to your podcast!! I’m in the midst of reading “Hobie, Master of water, wind and waves”. Corky Carroll is mentioned quite a bit in the book and I know he’s still around. One of my surf friends works with him. I’d like to hear his perspective on his surf history.
