I have goals of competing on the professional surfing tour one day, but mainly I just enjoy the moments leading up to a possible victory. Winning a world title in Stand Up Paddling was a big goal and then repeating those titles…winning a big wave world tour surfing event was great. Wins feel good but right afterward it’s a distant memory. The journey and preparation are as exciting to me as winning. Lenny: The goals I’ve set for myself have always been as important to me as a trophy or competition win. Does any particular victory stand out? (and why) It doesn’t break that often, only on the biggest winter swells, so it’s rare enough that each session is ingrained in my mind forever.ĪF: You've accomplished a lot in your long career. The joy from a successful ride there is unmatched by any other wave I’ve ridden. There is nowhere like it in the world with its beauty, raw power and ability to overcome fears. My all-time favorite wave in the world is Peahi (AKA Jaws). Lenny: Home is where the heart is-that’s for sure, haha, and that, for me, is Maui. What's your favorite location to compete or just for enjoyment? A New Earth Project is a step in that direction.ĪF: Hawaii natives grow up with so many great places to surf. Anything made for the ocean should come in packaging that isn’t harmful to the ocean. I got involved in A New Earth Project because I’ve always believed in doing what we love to do, and think we can do it in a sustainable way. (This) seems rare nowadays, as plastic ocean pollution is pretty much everywhere. Kai Lenny: It’s great traveling anywhere in the world where the beaches and oceans are still clean and pristine. Andy Frye: Talk about your passion for the ocean and the environment and how you got involved with ANEP:
