Tom Carroll visits 17th Street Surf Shop in Virginia Beach

Two time world champ and 2014 Waterman of the Year, Tom Carroll graced VBers with his presence this past Friday at 17th Street Surf Shop in Virginia Beach. Tom popped by 17th Street's surf camp ending ceremony to give some inspiration to the new generation of surfers. He was able to share his experiences about tackling some of the largest waves in the world! He later did a book and poster signing inside the store from 5-7 pm. We were lucky enough to have him join the rest of our Quiksilver team in the Mid Atlantic for a dinner with17th Street owner, Tom Brown and a few key employees. Joining us for the event and dinner was Jaci Schroeder from HQ. As well at east coast surfing legend, Matt Kechele from Wilmington, North Carolina. We are so glad was able to pop into Virginia Beach before heading back to Austrailia!
