Fantastic seeing these surfers from an incredible period for the sport at both Pipeline, and Sunset. So many incredible surfers along the north shore in those days. Thanks for bringing back the memories of my childhood growing up on Oahu. A remarkable period indeed. Aloha and Mahalo, C A

Haha. We can't go back unfortunately, but there spirit is still out there. Just have to go looking a little further! ruclips.net/user/shortsHXN5ndth-Sc
It's a great film. We reckon it deserved a far bigger profile. Phil was an excellent filmmaker. The full film is available to buy or rent here vimeo.com/ondemand/awinterstale
I learned to surf without a leash and I still have a vicious backside kick out but my frontside is very weak. I don't know exactly what that means except that I must be heel centric. Happy subscriber, BTW.
That is better than watching any surf contest . Ide rather watch these stylists back then before watching anything later than 1985. The lines and style was just different. These guys were core. No kid grows up without surfing without a leash .
We love watching to too! We have about 150 hours of footage scanned and restored and will be uploading over the next ...year or two. Can't wait to share. So much good stuff! Please subscribe and share to help us build the channel and keep it going. Thanks for the comment. Gives us the enthusiasm to keep at it!
I had watched maybe a minute and thought "no leg ropes?", so rewatched and then the Sunset section totally confirmed it. Some of the tricks to push the board through. Still like to take my leash off in small surf. A 'pure" experience no wettie no leash.
1974…the year I got my first board at age 12 and learned to surf. I am a child of the psychedelic 70’s generation, the short board revolution, before pro surfing and sponsors, when surfing was just for fun…
Single fins with the wide-point-forward. You carved off the rails to turn, and you had to move your feet. Not like with thrusters where you just gotta wiggle your hips.
Great single fin surfing. I always wonder why Simon Anderson NEVER put a patent on hit Thruster three fin design!!??? Simon would be a Billionare now! 🥴
Right On, I was 14 in'74 ripping up the South Shore. It doesn't seem like 50 years ago! But it is and I still feel the STOKE✌❤🤗
Four LEGENDARY names! I remember them well. Eddie Went. Let's never forget.

I love how Hakman loses it but still manages to get the board up and over the wave. He saved himself a long swim.
We love those pre-leg rope kickouts! Make sure you subscribe for more clips like this. Thanks :)

1974…the year I got
my first board at age 12 and learned to surf. I am a child of the psychedelic 70’s generation, the short board revolution, before pro surfing and sponsors, when surfing was just for fun…
Cool memories. It’s still fun. Just got to paddle out :)
The cosmic children. Surfing had soul back then. What happened?
The cosmic children sold It out to wall st
@@douglasbell8408...cosmic children with Duke on the poster...contests ruined the "sport

@@powerlooper9121 ...and now you have Ed Shreds with a cast of Huntington Hoppers trying to "kill" the wave...
It's still out there. Just gotta go looking for it! :)
...one world...one fin...no leash...
Simpler times!
I still ( sometimes) ride my 7.0 single fin Challenger with no leash to keep me humble
Never be anyone as cool as Lopez
He’s hard to beat for cool!
The grommets came with thrash
Is that turtle beach 0:07 haha
First surf movie I ever saw.
It's a good one. The full film is available to buy or rent here - vimeo.com/ondemand/awinterstale
"No leashes!" Folks
In 64 learning to surf, swam to the beach countless times.
Good learning curve!! :)
Leashes allowed way to many Wannabe 🏄🏻 They all would of Quit after a couple "Wipeouts!"
The leash allowed many to 🏄🏻 that would of normally Quit! 💪🏻🤙🏻
Great Video. Was Jamie's Dad out there ?
👌😎
Looks to me that those are actually the best boards for pipe
There's something pretty about them!
Looked a lot like Jerry Lopez on some of those Pipe waves?
Yeah, also Rory Russell and the pride of Laguna Beach, Mike Armstrong charging.
@@artlover1477 So many legends in this clip!!
garanz is was Lopez.
Isn’t the guy at 0:57 Jerry Lopez?
It is. Too many legends in one clip to namecheck them all :)
Great single fin surfing. I always wonder why Simon Anderson NEVER put a patent on hit Thruster three fin design!!??? Simon would be a Billionare now! 🥴
