It was an absolute pleasure to be able to sit down with Jay, and I thank him for allowing us to visit his family’s shop. If you’d like to know more about Iron Cross Surfboards, you can visit their website here.
If you own a local business or community organization, or you know someone who does and you think they’d be interested in being featured on a future episode of “Everyday Encinitas,” don’t hesitate to give me a call. I’d love to hear from you.
