There aren’t many places in the world where you can ride motocross in the morning and paddle out for a surf session in the evening, but here in Southern California you can do exactly that. It’s where the land meets the sea, and where surfboard shaper Ryan Sakal calls home. Having grown up a stone’s throw from the beach, Sakal has not only spent the better part of his life on a surfboard, but also inside a shaping room, learning the skills to create boards from his dad. Along the way, he also discovered motocross, which turned into one of his main passions and an escape for him from everyday life. We here at Fasthouse love his style, and the boards he creates are true works of art.
