Gerry Lopez

Dru Harrison

Andy Irons

You gotta go in the mud sometimes to figure out who you are.

Shaun Tomson

Being spat out of one of those giant, roaring Hawaiian tubes . . . it's joy, fear and accomplishment all rolled into one experience.

Michael Burness

I can think of a few guys on the circuit who would definitely benefit from two years spent in the army.

Jeff Hakman

Surfing is almost a way to fly.

Lorrin Harrison

Phil Edwards

Sometimes I feel like a two-bit version of Mickey Dora.

Felipe Pomar

If I stayed in Peru I was going to have to work, and that would mean less surfing and I didn’t want to do that.

Sunny Garcia

Kalani Robb

I was the youngest kid ever on the WCT. I'd get kicked me out of the competitors’ area because the bouncers thought I was just some lost grommet.

Tom Morey

My idea of a true surfer is a guy with practically no muscles: A pure loafer, just barely squeaking through it all.

Dane Kealoha

There’s always gonna be kids coming up to push the older guys overboard. I give myself three more years, then I’m gonna have to get into something else.

Hugh Bradner

You don’t have to stay dry to stay warm

Cheyne Horan

Ronnie Burns

After a while, surfing Pipe is just like surfing Rocky Point

Jack Shipley

Peter Drouyn is the unsung hero. He impressed me with his surfing, but staggered me with his thinking.

Jack O'Neill

What’s better than going surfing? What better possible way to occupy your time?

Kaipo Jaquias

My dad always said he surfed better than me. I hated him, so that’s why I got to be better than him.

Midget Farrelly

Mark Richards (1993)

Rabbit would just molest you in a heat. I molested people, too. Maybe I just molested them in a nicer way.

Sid Abbruzzi

Rusty Miller

I never thought of surfing in terms of a career. It was just something we did. I mean, I was going to be a political science teacher.

Chris O'Rourke

Mimi Munro

Brad Gerlach

Jim Banks

There was no way I was coming out of that tube, but I did, and everyone was just screaming, the whole beach was screaming.

Simon Anderson (2006)

I’m not a religious person, but I know man was not meant to be walking back and forth in a 14′ x 8′ box with fluorescent lights on the side, shaping surfboards.

Tiger Espere

We’re free here, getting it on, grooving in the nature that is all around us.

Chappy Jennings

What’s going on when surfers are getting tattoos? I mean, what direction is it headed?

John Peck

Tom Carroll

The key is to not bullshit yourself. Don’t create something that isn’t there inside you. If you're faking it, it'll be really obvious.

Eddie Aikau

I’ve gone over to Barry Kanaiaupuni’s way of thinking. Turns are all I’m interested in now.

Kathy Kohner

I was just a girl who surfed, and the guys at Malibu named me Gidget. Then I left and everything went crazy.

Renny Yater

Alec Cooke

I paddled out at Waimea that morning with blood in my eyes.

Bobby Martinez

Bryce Ellis

I do it for the sport. I like to compete. I’d still be doing the circuit if there was no money at all.

Dale Velzy

My grandfather built caskets, including President Teddy Roosevelt’s, so we we had a full set of tools. That's how I got into building boards.

Mark Richards (1978)

Warren Bolster

I love real hard, and I hate real hard.

Conrad Canha

It's bitchin’. I work three months, then draw unemployment the rest of the year and have a great time.

Pete Peterson

The girl makes a tandem team. If she looks like a sack of flour up there you wouldn’t get many points.

Mary Ann Hawkins

Barry Kanaiaupuni

Margo Oberg (1979, 1984)

I started surfing because I really like to be alone

John Severson

Dick Brewer

George Downing

Surfing leads you through life, especially when you’re young and with hope in your heart.
