Richie Collins & Tom Curren: A Surf Duel for the Ages

[@MrRobinski]

Curren is way smoother and can generate speed on nothing, no leggie also confident surfing. i love the look of his boards.

[@RealSurfStories]

Tripping on how he's carving around on those gutless waves. Super inspirational. I enjoy this a lot as these surf conditions are what most of us actually get most of the time.

[@MrRobinski]

@@RealSurfStories Yes the chop doesn't bother him too much.

[@RRReyes999]

The music is so good!

[@MikeListon-tk8ir]

Richie was super progressive and innovative during that time and place in contest surfing, but Curren's surfing will always be timeless, regardless if it's competition or free surfing.

Everyone was squirreling around while curren was setting the standard for smooth rail game. I want a red beauty just to practice my rail only. But no pad like occy looked so cool with those full rails

Tommy is surfing all these heats without a leash, rad! And hes just got something so much extra than everyone else, its wild how good he is

Mark Sainsbury on his Nirvana. A great Avoca beach surfer. RIP Sanga

[@countermoonman]

Those waves were crappy!…Tommy was great back in the day & still is, a real talent indeed but I’ve seen Richie Collins back in the day tearing it up in Newport and other spots in So.Cal. just rippin, I’ve always loved his aggressiveness and fluid riding ability in any kind of surf, and “Wave Tools”, ya gotta love the classic iconic Wave Tools boards, wish I still had mine from the early days! 🤙🏼
