‘C-K9 / SEA-DOGS’
Like all life, CK9 was born from the sea. Our name pays homage to a simpler time, a landlocked band of friends, the open road, and some questionable surf skills. Has much changed? Well we have jobs, families, and responsibilities, but CK9 is still just a Seadawg in sheep’s clothing. Still loving life. Still mediocre at surfing.
