About this listen
What happens when a world-traveled surfer, board builder, and fisherman plants roots in the Outer Banks? You get David Rhode — a man who's been shaping boards, riding waves, and shaping community for over 40 years on the Outer Banks. From surfing Oregon swells in 1968 to glassing over 65,000 boards, David shares his front-row view of the evolution of surfing, the unmatched outdoor opportunities here, and the tight-knit spirit that shows up when it matters most. David also talks about how the Outer Banks is vital to the surfboard manufacturing business on the East Coast.
Themes you'll hear in this episode:
- How the Outer Banks surf scene has changed (and stayed the same)
- Stories from building the largest surfboard factory on the East Coast
- The deep generosity and resilience of this coastal community
David's stories aren't just about waves — they're about finding home in open spaces, on the water, and among people who always show up for each other.
