A conversation with Zac Backlin_SURF DRY

Our guest this week is a Surfer, engineer, and inventor with a background spanning engineering, technology platforms, and executive management. He’s held a variety of leadership roles at Dell Computers and other tech companies, focusing on cloud data and application modernization. Along the way, he also earned a company-sponsored MBA from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania.So when you mix a highly analytical engineering mind with the everyday frustration of dealing with a wet, cold, and stinky wetsuit, the result is a smart, problem-solving product. His invention, Surf Dry, is a small but mighty two-unit system designed to dry your wetsuit or booties overnight. So you’re always ready for the next session.We’re pumped to sit down and hear the story behind the innovation and welcome to the show, Mr. Zac Backlin.
