As a young boy always dream about surfing someday . Marcus would watch Beach Blanket Bingo starring Annette Funicello and Frankie Avalon ” Gidget “ just seeing Moon Doogie and Tube Steak surfing, he knew that’s what he wanted to do! He started surfing at 12 years old with the older guys on the block.

His father would take him surfing every weekend whether it rained or shined, and during the summer week he also use to hitch hike to the beach, it was a different world back then, now all grown up and still in love with the sport of surfing, he is teaching it and spreading Aloha to the world.T-Bird Kauai
