Dan Ross

An organic food eating, man hack slicing, gentle giant from Angourie. Dan Ross is an ex WSL tour veteran whose Yoda-like wisdom is sought after by surfers in need of a style tune up. When he’s not coaching the stars he’s considering ways to give back to the world and slotting in as much power surfing as he can in the process.
