Back in the 90's, when I was in my early twenties I was one hungry longboarder. I am not referring to food hungry....., but hungry to learn more about longboarding and the cast of characters presented to me via videos and magazines. Remember, this is pre internet revolution. When the new issue of Longboard Magazine would show up at my local surf shop, I was the first one in buying one, sometimes the only one lol. Sometimes it was a new surf video arriving at the shop where either there was a segment of hot longboarding or it was a full on longboard vid. Thats where I got acquainted with a tall, slim, lanky dude by the name of Terry Simms. There was something about his surfing that seemed so God Damn intense, fast and unique. Many months ago I wrote and reached out to his Instagram account to see if I'd be lucky in getting an interview with the longboarding shredder that I had seen in mags and vids almost thirty years ago. I did not hear back immediately from Terry, which is not uncommon when I am looking for my special guests. However, one day I woke up to a message from his wife Nancy in which she wrote that Simms was happy to do an interview for my podcast.So here It is!
