GEORGE GREENOUGH BACK TO BASICS

THE ALTERNATIVE SURF CULTURE


Crystal Voyager from Mollusk Surf Shop on Vimeo.

George Greenough is one of the most influential surfers of our time. His research give us the flex fin, studying the Tunas and its hydrodynamic fins in high velocity changes. As Simmon's, his famous spoon give the hydrodynamic advantage of low rocker and the magic of its flex wih thin rails for sensitivity. His style as Lis redefined surfing and produce the contemporary short board revolution up to our days. His simplicity in life make me jealous. Design, nature research  and the joy of surfing. Enjoy the ride!

Wow, great footage from George Greenoughs film. I surfed with him in Santa Barbara, Ca. in 1969 when he was getting more tube rides than anyone in the World at that time.... Monty Smith
