Wow, that noseride at 2:22 would make Nuuihiwa jealous! It just kept going and going... and GOING... 8-9 seconds. I think he could have held it longer if he'd wanted to.

Matt's surfing is beautiful but the 60's weren't that great. Just surf and enjoy it because you can't be nostalgic about wars, shit roads , cars that wouldn't start and being so poor you could afford an ice-cream. Not to mention shit cans (the real ones), outside dunnies, no toilet paper ever , raw sewage in the surf, no idea if the surf was good unless you walked 5 miles for a look, smog, bench seats and no seat belts, no aircon anywhere, cold uninsulated houses clad with blue asbestos ..... Mig Farrelly (RIP) was the big name and nobody new any bloke called McTavish.

Oh my … not how I experienced it … but every era has it pros & cons
