ryan burch encinitas 4cities what youth

Ryan Burch has been doing his thing in the underground for some time, but since his feel good part in Volcom’s Psychic Migration he has really been on the radar. What Youth wandered around his hometown of Encinitas to see if it made him or if he made it.

 

4 Cities: A new series from What Youth and Volcom 
Episode 2: Ryan Burch in Encinitas, CA:

In episode 2 we headed to the sleepy beach town of Encinitas, California to see where modern gypsy Ryan Burch honed his highly sought-after style and interpretation of surfing and craft riding. We see the waves, the shaping bays and the burrito shops that molded one of surfing’s most creative minds and styles.

What’s the place you spend the majority of your life like? Does it make you you? Or do you make it you? We wanted to immerse ourselves in some of our favorite surfers hometowns to see how they blend in or stand out in their communities.
