Greg Noll Shaping Redwood Surfboards with Lorrin Harrison, Doc Ball and LeRoy Grannis

Greg Noll (grey sweatshirt) shapes 3 wood surfboards with the input of Lorrin "Whitey" Harrison (Arctic Cap, palm frond hat), John "Doc" Ball (original Palos Verdes Surf Club sweatshirt) and Leroy "Granny" Grannis (white bucket style hat). These are representations of the boards each of them rode in the 1930's. This is a portion of the first episode of the short lived television show "surf!" from 1991. Still photos and black and white movie courtesy John "Doc" Ball. 8 hours of footage from two cameras over a 3 day period whittled down to 10 minutes. The book they are looking at is Doc's book: Surfriders of 1946. This video is copyright 1991 / 2016 Jim Shelton

    My first surfboard was a Balsa Wood Greg Noll with the Fat Man decal on it. Boy do I wish I had kept that board. Greg Noll did all my work on my board, broke the nose of my board and he fixed it perfectly. RIP Greg.

    I'm probably one of the few surfers watching this who can say I've performed that music around 80 to 100 times! Greg Knoll on the other other hand is a LEGEND!!!

    It's going to be really hard to find anyone with that knowledge. They all died. Your best bet is to try to get measurements off of a board in a surf museum. And take a lot of pictures of that board, with rulers in the pictures. A redwood board is nearly useless, sure you want to go through the effort?

    I wish I could go back in time with my shortboard and show these guys what the future looked like and see the looks on their faces.
