The 1985 Billabong Pro Sunset Beach was held in a solid mix of north and west swells colliding onto the famous bowl of Paumalu. It was a time of change, with the old guard of Mark Richards, Rabbit and Shaun Tomson, getting taken out by the new guard of Tom Curren, Occy and Barton Lynch amongst others. But Hawaii, and Sunset beach in particular, favors experience over flamboyance, and on this da...

I am also a big Chris Won fan and love riding stand up bodyboards. So trying to combine a surfboard with a boogie has been a goal of mine since the late 90's.

    Loved this old footage, brought back a lot of memories. I especially want to thank you for the Caldera footage. I forgot the name of that break..one time when the shore break was too big at Playa Hermosa , I decided to drive up to Boca Barranca but on the way saw this amazing left off a jetty. Had no idea where I was or anything about this break. I paddled out alone and had an amazing surf session. The only thing was the water smelled like gasoline and stung my eyes. Probably from the nearby refinery/ship yard. I swear if I lit a match the ocean would have been ablaze!

    A great big thumbs down for the crap music in the video. You know the crap music that P Diddy Jay Z and the rest of them put out at the expense of young people. Crap music has destroyed the lives of hundreds of thousands of young black and brown people. Celebrating it in a video definitely deserves a thumbs down. It leads me to think that these two Surfers might be diddly diddly is as well.

      So...I guess you commented without even watching the video? Sounds like you are talking about the less than one minute intro hip hop music- which is nothing like what you described. Because the entire video is completely varied musically.

Says something huge about Salba and how it is possible to maintain a sense of kind humility and focus on empathy while becoming legend at a young age. Most dudes become self absorbed or addicted. Love for anything outside the pursuit is not a concern for them. Salba has always been an inspiration to me and only until recently had i been able to state why honestly.

    I really domt know exactly what the rule says but Shane was standing up first. Obviously having the inside means nothing if you simply are back hoping a guy from the inside. I suppose the judges saw it more as they were getting up simultaneously, but they weren’t. This was from a time everything was going slaters way and he was being overscored. Beschen deserved at least one world title but he got robbed out of it by calls like this and overscoring slater.
