Seems like Joel is a big David fan

I saw David at the world championships in Ocean Beach San Diego where he amazed the crowd by taking a ten toes over the nose nose ride through the pier . . the longest nose ride I have ever seen. The year I believe was 1963 and the contest was won by Australian surfer Nat Young on a 9'4" board he called Magic Sam. At the time it was considered a radical departure for anyone to ride a board as short as 9' 4" (which happened to also be the length of my Gordon and Smith at the time).

who would click dislike on this??

in my opinion a better longboarder than dora- I would rather watch david than most any other surfer even today- very fluid and cool.
one of the best surfboards I ever had was a nuuhiwa 6'10- a magic board.

@Cervicconstruction Ah,thats no big thing, its probably more jelousy than anything on my part haha....a day or two back then would be absolutely priceless

True dat but I worked at MTB for a time got to count D.T. as a friend and anytime I cared to use his original D.T. model I was welcome to it was my mistake and should have rewritten the post to correct that error.

@Cervicconstruction I rode a Tak and it was smooth, about 9'8" totally red. I rode it for several years until it was so trashed and drove home one morning to find my surf buds using it as a target in a knife throwing contest, the day man, the day

We lost something when we went to short boards. I surfed during the transition period. Loved my shorter 7' 4" G & S that Skip Frye shaped for me, and then I went to a 6' board. But I started on a long board and loved cross stepping to the nose. All that went away for several years. Long boards were no where to be seen in the water. The nose riding and the smoother approach is so cool.

One of a handful of Classic Longboarders from the 60's who justifies a ten minute tribute. Such a unique style and gifted athlete who just makes it look so easy that 10:37 barely does him justice. A great soundtrack(far as I'm concerned). Thanks for this compilation and post!
