To be doing what he is doing now at 40 (almost) against all those fit guys half his age is just mind boggling.
From a longevity viewpoint, apart from Mike Stewart (who has had a parallel career) I can't think of any better athletes, let alone surfers! - Mark


I smell a reformed lid rider the Stewart comparison is interesting, and Tony Hawk is probably in the same category in skateboarding terms, a long career that has shaped the sport they were apart of, not only in performance but equipment and media coverage.

Stewart kept going too, but bodyboarding never had any money in it to start with! Well, maybe for a few manufacturers, not for the competitors - Mark
