Today we chat with surfer and shaper Ashley Lloyd, who grew up immersed in Malibu's male dominated surf culture.

We explore the process of creating custom orders, how new boards can evolve your surfing, the spiritual and artistic dimensions of surfing and shaping, as well as mindfulness and connection with the sport.
