In both 2016 and 2017 Nick Franco won his division in the Molokai 2 Oahu world paddleboarding championships on prone boards that he made himself. In this inaugural podcast episode, Nick Franco shares his stories about becoming a world class athlete in the cold waters of Northern California (where very few paddle seriously), his drive to build the next generation of paddleboards with his Shearwater Paddleboards company, and general passion for surfing, diving, and family. Thanks for sharing Nick's ocean life with us -- we hope you go out and live your ocean life to its fullest.
You can find pictures and video of Nick on the ThisOceanLife.TV Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook pages. We are also on Twitter.
