THE CREW

Paul

OWNER, FOUNDER, CREATOR & SHAPER

I am the founder of Paulsen Surf Garage. Whether it’s the glide of the sandpaper over the board in the making or gliding on the water, passion, focus, and fun are always included. My favorite motto:

“Teamwork makes the dream work.”

With Paulsen Surf Garage, I want to invigorate the local surf scene and raise awareness of the beautiful sport. Read an interview with Paul HERE.
