What if you surfed every single day for 40 years?

In this episode, we pay tribute to Dale Webster — the Californian surfer who rode waves every day from 1975 to 2015. That’s 14,642 consecutive days, over 43,000 waves, and a record that will likely never be broken.

You may know Dale from Step Into Liquid, where he appears as the wetsuit-worn soul bowing to waves in thanks. But his story goes far beyond a quirky documentary cameo. 

We’ll talk about what drove him, how his family supported him, and why this story feels bigger than surfing. A hui hou, Dale.
