International Ambassador of Grom Stoke, Ricky Schaffer Taking home the Silver from the ISA World Masters Kahuna Div, Nicaragua

Energy, energy, energy is the name of this grom’s game. Well he’s not really a grom as far as years on this earth, but when it comes to the stoke factor, he’s always running at full tilt level 10….and as far as looking at the world through the eyes of a grommet, he is very much living in that place. The buckets that fly from his fins on his backhand are some of the most monumental in the business to this day. On crowded days at the best spots, he catches more set waves than anybody I know….it’s miraculous. I try to paddle to position myself right next to him in the line-up when we surf to get a few extra sets to myself and I still don’t come close to his wave count…..aaarrgghhhh. Currently residing in Venice Beach, you’ll find Ricky popping up just about anywhere on the entire coast depending on the swell….in fact you probably already know Ricky….I think just about everybody everywhere knows Ricky…..he’s one of those charismatic characters that seeks to shine a light into pretty much everybody’s life that he crosses paths with.

We can’t think of a better ambassador of grom stoke to take home a medal from the ISA World Masters. YEW for the Forever Grom!!
