OK, here I am Larry Caragay aka: MOK

For you that are wondering how I got my nickname. Here is the story, some of the old Venice Boy's by the name of Monty Wilson and Lee Clemonts gave it to me when I was really young. That is the complete story.

I started surfing when I was 8 years old in Malibu, CA. I had some of the best teachers like: Wayne Roland, Joe Sanders, Bob Fergison, Jay Riddles, Angie Reno, Nigel Yandel, and Jeff Ho.

• Soul surfed Malibu, CA from 1974 to 1992.
• Went to Collage at the University of Montana in 1992 to 1997. No surf there in Montana, just lots of snowboarding and fly fishing.
• Joined the Malibu Surfing Association in 1997
• Started Tandem surfing in the summer of 1997 with the help of Doug and Airial Ogalbey's and Steve and Barrie Boehne
• Joined the Ventura Surf Club in 1998
