Damo's a professional mumbler as we always say that we need subtitles every time he talks.
He's always had issues with his guts. One time we were in a taxi in Brazil and he was saying that he needed to use the restroom. Then it just went completely silent and we pulled up at our destination and he got out of the car clinching the bottom of his walk shorts trying not to let the poop come out. It was so funny lucky for us it rained that night and cleaned up the poop in front of the hotel.

Damo-The Thinker...If you are planning on having a meaningful conversation with Damo, be prepared for some quizzical looks followed by a 24-36 hour delay while he ponders the issue before getting back to you at the most random moment...CJ would have told you how he felt before you even finished speaking...

Damo-The Surfer...Under-rated... Sure, the Hobgoods excel in barreling lefts, but spend any time with them and you will quickly learn that they get quickly bored surfing perfect lefts and would much rather be challenged by a mutant right wedge...Damo's backhand tube riding skills are as refined as they come...His ability to make subtle adjustments in the barrel blows my mind.

Damo -The Prankster...When CJ is seeing red, Damo's eyes start to sparkle...Nobody knows how to push somebody's buttons better than your twin brother, and Damo is a master...Deadpan poker-face while he eggs CJ on followed by his mischievous grin and distinctive cackle...Put them together on the road and its bound to turn into who can rile up who first...
