JAY RIFFE was ten years old when he started spearfishing off the Southern California Coast with a hand spear. At age fifteen he was spearfishing competitively, and by age twenty-two became the Pacific Coast Champion. Jay then placed in the Nationals, landing a spot on the World Spearfishing Team. Later, he set three World Records, all with his own handcrafted spearguns.
