Quick interview with Zachariah

I live in Orange, and go to Chapman University. I body surf mostly at The Wedge in Newport Beach, and both Northside and Southside Huntington, as well as moving down the coast a little, with every once in awhile heading down to Laguna or Salt Creek. 

I learned to body surf at around age 7, its been the family sport since I can remember. I am almost 20 now and have been doing it all of my life. I have also picked up bodyboarding as well and have been paddling out at Huntington for roughly 5 years as well as continuing bodysurfing when I can. It is hands down my favorite past time and it is therapeutic for me.
