“THE SURFER’S JOURNAL BIOGRAPHIES: WAYNE LYNCH/TOM CARROLL”: Lynch and Carroll each made their own indelible impression upon modern surfing, and count as Australia’s most influential goofyfoots. Lynch, the poster child of the ‘60s Shortboard Revolution and Carroll, the ‘80s two-time World Champion who brought power surfing to a new level and set the standard for fitness. Both stories are told in intimate, surf-stoked detail in this new one-hour edition of The Surfer’s Journal Biographies.
“THE SURFER’S JOURNAL BIOGRAPHIES: TOM CURREN/KELLY SLATER” NOW ON DVD: The most in-depth look at two of modern surfing’s most influential performers is now available on this sixty minute DVD with bonus segments including Curren ripping La Fontania, and Kelly getting towed in to huge waves in France. Tom Curren and Kelly Slater are surfing's most important figures in the last 20 years. Both exhibited innate natural ability and wave knowledge; and between the two of them, they amassed an unprecedented nine world titles. This Surfer's Journal Biography reviews both surfers' careers with intimate perspectives that help us understand who they really are as human beings as well as great wave riders.
