Vision Statement

This story began with the vision statement Brick wrote for The California Surf Lodge™ at 2:00 am on a San Francisco night at the age of 26. Lost, confused and dealing with the passing of a dear friend, he questioned his purpose here on Earth and the legacy he wished to leave behind.

CASL-00

The real adventure started with the purchase of a Roadtrek Popular 200 van, CASL-00, otherwise known as “Turbo”, a worthy land vessel built to carry Brick up and down the state of California developing this business vision, surfing and meeting people along the way.
