Koa Smith - Pro Surfer, Model, Co-Founder of Sunrise Shack
Today's guest is Koa Smith. Koa is a Pro Surfer, Model, Youtuber, Business Owner, and a true role model for a lot of people out there. Born and raised in Hawaii, KOA is a three-time amateur national surf champion of America. He's traveled the world with sponsors such as Hurley, Nike, and Oakley, competing and creating content since a young age. In 2016, Koa surfed a wave in Namibia called Skeleton Bay and captured the longest barrel in surfing history. He is the current record holder of the longest barrel in history and the most barrels ridden on one wave. SO INCREDIBLE to have accomplished all that at such a young age. On top of all that - with his brothers, they co-founded the Sunrise Shack - the go-to place for healthy eats to fuel your body and soul. They now have two locations in Hawaii and in Japan and over 80K dedicated followers on Instagram. In today’s episode, we talk about his intense training routine, the ride of his life at Skeleton Bay, how he manages a business with his brothers, his brand partnerships with Hurley and Nike, and how he continues to stay motivated and positive every day to reach his goals.
