Rare footage of the San Diego 1966 World Surfing Championships

28 October 24


10 minutes from ’66. There’s no voiceover, and actually not all that much tight surf action really, but it’s a great overview of the event and a cool snapshot of the era. Drop-ins galore, chopper shots, a paddle race in the middle of it all, the Duke hanging out, and Nat and Joyce taking charge in the water . . .

Men’s Final:

1. Nat Young (Aust), 2. Jock Sutherland (Haw), 3. Corky Carroll (USA), 4. Steve Bigler (USA), 5. Rodney Sumpter (UK), 6. Midget Farrelly (Aust)

Women’s Final:

1. Joyce Hoffman (USA), 2. Joey Hamasaki (USA), 3. Mimi Munro (USA), 4. Gail Couper (Aust), 5. Josette Lagarde (USA), 6. Phyllis O’Donell
