Jocko Willink is an author, podcaster and former SEAL team member. 

In recent years, his profile outside the military has soared courtesy of his businesses (Origin USA & Echelon Front), books (he has published 11), and appearances on the highly-trafficked Sam Harris, Joe Rogan, Jordan Peterson and Tim Ferriss podcasts. 

Jocko here during his ‘day-in-the-life’ clip produced by Origin USA admits to being a surfboard kleptomaniac and tells the story of how he got introduced to surfing in Maine as a 10-year-old. Now age 50, Jocko routinely surfs in San Diego on a board safely in the 40+ literage range and can throw down a very stylish highline trim.  

Wouldn’t recommend burning him.
