    Been surfing since 67. This brings back great memories of awesome surf with no crouds an very few egos. It's sad that some surfers sold out and took this great lifestyle and went commercial with it. I still catch surf and enjoy it but it's not the same. Too much aggression and too many egos. Sorry boys you missed the gold. Soul surfer for life. Forever stoked.

    I was 12 in 76’… moved too Hawaii in 72’… I remember hanging around North Shore and seeing these guys, so epic, Lopez is super cool and laid back 🤙

    I was four in 1976. But I do remember getting to watch Lopez and a little bit of Buttons coming up as a kid. But honestly these two guys had more style in their big toe than most of the guys today. I think it's somewhat become so much more performance-based that sometimes style is left out. But when you see it you know exactly what it is that makes that Rider looks so freaking good. RLTW 3/75

    Great video! Brings back so many great memories.
    Moved to Oahu from Kauai in the 60s.
    Board designs have improved so much since then.

    Buttons used to always be by Sharks Cove Foodland before he passed and he was always the nicest guy. He also taught kids to surf at Chun’s.

    Some good style and equally, some goofy looking rides. Back when the sport was still still evolving and folk were doing their own thing.

      We thought we were rad. But board designs were kind of clunky then compared to nowadays.

      These guys were leading edge surfer of their time. The sport has been evolving since the Duke surfed Waikiki, dumb ass. I was there, surfing everything that came through, including Waimea. Where were you, learning to ride your tricycle ?
