  • @carveboarder13 Agreed. I knew about half the people on this film and looking at it now it's shameful, however they surfed to the exact criteria of that time. Fathom this: Last year Kelly Slater at 39 got a 10 on a one manuever wave for nearly pulling a 540 frontside mute grab on an overhead, offshore wave in Long Island New York and earned $100K for his efforts. This is 23 years after this video when all but one of his colleagues is gone from the tour. The times have changed with 1 man standing

  • it looks lame because the waves were so small if the waves were bigger it would look more like ripping

  • thank you for posting. /Memory lane!/

  • Absolutely classic! Excellent vid need more 80s Florida surf videos please!

  • Pat Mulhern is a ripper but he looked like a fa-reek ka-hoook on some of those. Must have been the era.

  • amazing what was considered "ripping" in those days...if only the shapes were planed down a bit.

  • "airplane reentry"

    sick music.
