Episode 5
In this episode I talk to the extremely kind and humble Peter Devries. Pete is a professional surfer from Tofino B.C. and was one of the people to really legitimize Canadian surfing. He's recognized around the world for his talent. In this episode we talk about how he got his surfing to where it is today, who influenced him, his family life, what it was like for him competing early on in his career and why he chose the non-competitive route.
