Hi, My name is Erik…some call me Smelly… My Dad calls me Dickhead! Growing up in southern California, music, surfing and skating have been a huge influence on my life.
 
I started playing drums at about 15 and that has taking me around the world many times…and my passion for surfing has done the same.
 
As a kid, I wasn’t satisfied with just listening to music, I had to create it….and as an adult i am not just satisfies with surfing, I have to shape boards. The same creative mindset is in both.
 
Like songs, no two waves and boards are exactly the same. Just as I love to figure out what beat works best for a certain song…I love to figure out what board will work best for you!!!!
