In TSJ 32.3’s “Beyond the Bluff,” author Christian Beamish tracks the many pursuits of Central Coaster Chad Kaimanu Jackson. From backdooring slabs on boards shaped from agave stalks milled by his own hands to stewarding the land as a California State Parks archeologist, Kaimanu lives a life largely of his own design. In the film above, he gives us a glimpse into the unique position he occupies. For a more in-depth look, pick up a copy of our new issue here.
