The Renaissance Man. Growing up in the desert of Southern California 2 hours from the beach, Lorenzo got his first taste of surfing at 14 years old. Like most of us, the first wave he caught was all it took to become hooked for life. Following his passion, he began teaching surf lessons in 1982, going on to also become an AASI certified Professional Snowboard Instructor, and now coaches both adults and groms in surfing as well as skateboard training both privately and at Performance Surf in Carlsbad, CA. His love for the ocean and sense of responsibility to protect it led him to found a non-profit in 2011 called H2O Trash Patrol, taking SUPs out every available weekend he could between San Diego Harbor and Dana Point, collecting over 40,000 lbs of trash from the ocean. If you know Lorenzo, you understand Ohana. He facilitates this inclusive sense of family, community, and stoke for living with everyone he meets. Meet Lorenzo and feel his positive + loving energy…it leaves an everlasting impression!
