My second photo ever run by ESM. At this point, I was over the game and thought I would never get a photo run and my friend Tom Scillia and Jason Smith from Epicshirts both said, "you take great photos, don't be discouraged. You'll see pretty soon you have photos on Surfline and SurferMag one day..." I still have a tough time thinking my photos are good because I've always had a tough time with compliments. I don't like being praised but love to praise and lift others up. My church here in NJ taught me, "Others first, then you." I will always lift others and focus on other people before ever focusing on myself. Just my nature. Photo: Ben Currie
We’ve chosen to focus our relaunch around the theme: EVOLVE. Transformation is core to who we are, and we put it out to The Inertia’s influencers and most talented contributors to share moments that caused significant personal growth and transformation – ideally with some relation to surfing, but also to life in general. These are a few of Ben Currie’s moments.
