  • Likely one of the most physically intimidating people you will ever come across, Kai 'Borg' Garcia is an extremely positive role model with the ability to extract the best version of anyone, even without speaking at times.
    The former Jiu-Jitsu World Champion is an integral part of the Hawaiian Water Patrol & community, keeping the world’s best surfers safe as they take on some of the largest waves imaginable.
    "It doesn’t matter what you’ve done in your life…it’s what are you doing today."
    In this episode of the Occ-Cast, Occy & Kai sit down to talk on staying in the present, being the best person you can be every day, the next generation of Hawaiian surfers & much more.
    This is Occy v Kai Borg.

    Pipe regulator humbled by health. God bless you. Respect from San Diego. Life is tough already and we make it harder with alcohol and drugs. Thanks for the inspiration.

    One recommendation: it might help to order questions chronologically and from big picture/easy, to more specific/deeper. Could help flow. Nice work though!

    Anybody who has any sort of influence on young people please spread the message of a healthy, stay out of drugs, life.
    We can make it so much better for others.
    All the best big man!

    • @macoy9999
      @macoy9999 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      there was some real history there, if you watched the "Momentum Generation" movie, and Occy rightfully stepped lightly.

    • @markburton8653
      @markburton8653 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The dude was kinda hard to get to open up. That's a good job on the occ man's part to get him too.

    Great interview Occ. sobriety is beautiful thing. I think as we all get older whether you’re a pro or one of the better guys at your home break, it’s important to know when to bow out gracefully and make room for the younger guys. We don’t stop we just help and give the best advice we can to the next generation. Keep up the good work!!

    Kai, if you read the comments I want to let you know that I sent this video to my 17 year old daughter who just got out of rehab in Honolulu. Great words of wisdom from you. I hope they don't fall on deaf ears. This video came out at just the right time for her and many others that struggle with drug and alcohol abuse.

    With such a big dude from
    The old macho-puff-out-the-chest-regulation era im pleasantly surprised and thankful to hear he likes how things are now and how good and cordial people are to each other in surfing. Love this guy instantly

    • @markburton8653
      @markburton8653 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Lol you say that now but go accidentally cut this guy off. Something tells me you'd have another opinion about him Haha

  • @michaelyankaus3518

    I always admired Kai's strengths, and friendship with Andy Iron's. Inspiring to see him face what he defined as weaknesses in such a direct and humble way. I have also stayed away from alcohol and etc. since age 19. Committed to Meditation, Fitness, Healthy Diet and Supplements - and Surfing. I agree with Kai, it is the golden path.

    Kai and Kala were beating guys bloody for decades.
    Really disappointed in Occy for doing this interview.
    Occy has an misguided perception of this guy’s character given his celebrity.
    A man’s character is revealed by how he treats those who can do nothing for him.
    No one should be supporting these guys.
    Drop RVCA for sponsoring them.
    Who’s next on the Occ cast? Kala?

      I know this is old but you know Borg has known Occ for YEARS!!! Redemptions calls for the most inspirational stories, and Borg has been walking that road to redemption and has been transforming into a new man.
