    Cohen Thomas: Nurse & pit pilot.

    Cohen Thomas is likely the answer to our cries “where are all the hardcore young boogers these days”

    Compared to the early 2000’s there appears to be less in number, but maybe Cohen & his brother make up for a few dozen given the airs n pits they're piloting.

    Imagine surfing 6-10 foot flat bottom pits in the middle of nowhere for 10 hours straight. Literally 10 hours straight. That’s Cohen & his brother.

    Enjoy this chat with a truly special breed of boog bloodline. Coco Thomas.
