The living world moves in pulses, defined equally by motion and pause. As waterpeople, we know this. Daize & Aamion Goodwin are a couple of exceptional surfers who have taken to applying the philosophy of the pause to daily life as a family.
Daize is a two time world longboard champion and Aamion made a successful career as a multi-faceted waterman renowned for his casual approach to Pipeline and other waves of consequence.
Now in their 17th year of marriage, with three wildlings, Daize and Aamion have become known for their freerange approach to parenting while maintaining surfing lives of their own. In 2016, they delivered the film Given into the world, named after their first born, -- a documentary that follows their family from their island home of Kauai through 15 countries in the quest for surf and to fulfill a calling handed down through generations.
Theirs is a surfing love story, defined by the crests and troughs many know well: finding work/life balance, learning how to communicate, adapting to the seasons of parenting, falling in and out of love. "That's what marriage is," Daize says. As perpetual students of surfing, life and love, The Goodwins talk us through a little of what they've learned along the way.
