Ty holds multiple East Coast and National Longboard titles, and he was the 6th best wrestler in the U.S. coming out of high school. Dr. Roach shares with us about his life as a second-generation surfer, and recounts how during a pro contest, he found himself surfing in the finals against his father, “Papa Roach.” He also tells us about earning a scholarship to wrestle for North Carolina State University and how he became the university’s valedictorian. After graduating from N.C. State, he chased pro longboarding for years, but after a surfing injury, he decided to pursue his Ph.D. at San Diego State University where he helped lead the university’s surf team to a national title. Today, Dr. Roach continues to compete in some WSL longboard events and is an active researcher in the areas of marine biology and biophysics.
