“THE CALIFORNIA KID” dropped in at the tail end of the IPS and continued onto the Association of Surfing Professionals (ASP) that was founded by and Ian “KANGA” Cairns in 1982. Then in 2013 the ASP was acquired to what it is known as today, The World Surf League (WSL) .

MONDAYS WITH MATT
Back in the day before SPF 50 SUNSCREEN , they used to find shelter from the blazing 🌞 in other ways. Matt “KECH AIR” Kechele with his own version of an umbrella.

ABC Wide World of Sports used to televise the Pipe Masters. “SAND CRAB” watched it with his Mom and looked at her and said “Someday I’m gonna win that thing!”
Fast forward to 1978, “SAND CRAB” is 17 years old standing next to his heroes about to surf in the Pipe Masters finals. At first he was a little nervous but as the day went on, he felt more relaxed. He saw that Gerry Lopez , Rory Russell , Dane Kealoha (REST IN POWER) , and Larry Blair .blair64 , were only human. He thought he had as could as chance as anyone, given the right opportunities and waves. As he padded out though, Dan Merkel (amazing water photographer) told him he was going to die out there!!?? blair64 won that year.
But what an amazing confidence booster and milestone.
In the morning of the final he was “SAND CRAB”. At the of the day he became what he is forever known as, “THE CALIFORNIA KID”!!

Sometimes you need a good sparring partner to help push you to be better. For “SAND CRAB” that was none other than Surfer/Shaper David Barr !! Dave was the YING to the YANG that “SAND CRAB” needed to strive and thrive!!

I can’t recall us talking about “THE CALIFORNIA KID” riding for , but maybe we did? I do remember him telling us about making it to the USA Championships in Texas. He had to make money to get there and took a job picking tomatoes at the fields where now stands.
There was a hurricane swell for the contest. In his first heat, he said a Gale force wind💨 blew and ripped his surfboard from his arm. The surfboard flew high and slammed to the ground and broke in half. He got another nickname that day “BOARDLESS”.

mentioned how he and his friends from South Oceanside used to call a backhand grab rail tube stance the “JOEY” or doing the “JOEY BURAN”. Well WHOOP THERE IT IS!!
02/24/2024
Joe Martin Buran was born in 1961 in Cleveland, Ohio. His Father was a Military Recruiter who served in two wars and his Mother a feisty Catholic and former homecoming Queen. They moved from state to state, but eventually fate had them settle in Oceanside, California. Joe was in 6th grade. Back then, on TV’s Brady Bunch, he noticed that the “cool kids” wore corduroy bell bottoms and at school the “cool kids” were Surfers. Things quickly changed. JOE was a swimmer, but now he is JOEY a Surfer.
As you may know by now we love nicknames. Nicknames are mostly terms of endearment, but sometimes not. We try and focus on the positive and funny ones.
This photo is from 1978 where Joey “SAND CRAB” Buran is captured, probably doing what he does that got him that nickname.
Joey later became “THE CALIFORNIA KID” after blitzing the contest scene.

FLASHBACK FRIDAY
In our conversation with “THE CALIFORNIA KID”, he brings up the name Chris O’Rourke. Chris was from La Jolla and a couple years older than Joey. Chris was a naturally gifted prodigy Surfer. Joey told us about a session at Horseshoe when Gerry Lopez and Rory Russell made an appearance, but Chris was stole the show. He was pulling into barrels, no handed, and doing things that only has done since. Rabbit Bartholomew touted Chris O’Rourke to be a future World Surf Champion. Sadly he passed too young from Hodgkin’s disease. Thanks Joey for sharing his memory with us.
02/23/2024
Our guest this week is a Hall of Fame Pro Surfer that finished #7 on the Championship Tour. With multiple career victories including the prestigious 1984 Pipeline Masters! In
1985 he founded the Professional Surfing Association of America (PSAA) tour. But from highs to lows, in just a few short years later, depression got the best of him. He hit
rock bottom. Soon after, he gave his life to Jesus Christ and he couldn’t believe that his purpose in life was more than just winning Pipe Masters and that his Best has yet to come!!! For the last has 30 years he has been balancing both careers as Coach for the USA World Amateur Champion Team and others, as well as being a full-time Pastor, a guest speaker, an author, and a mentor focusing on our youth! From being on the top of Pro-Surfing, to opening Calvary Chapel Churches, to eventually starting his own Church “Worship Generations” his story isn’t finished! We are beyond honored and pumped to sit down with the Legendary Mr. Joey “THE CALIFORNIA KID” Buran! Listen to this week’s episode!! Find us on or wherever you listen to podcasts!

As you may have guessed or might have already known, Dick Metz is the Surfer that inspired the movie “Endless Summer”. He documented his 3 year trip of chasing waves and incredible experiences. Once he got back home, he showed his photos to Bruce Brown and John Severson.
In June 1966, Endless Summer came out and became a blockbuster hit, inspiring Surfers all over the globe to seek out waves and travel the world 🌍. Listen to this week’s episode Dick Metz !!

In the early 1950’s Dick Metz father owned “SURF LIQUOR” in Huntington Beach. Dick ran it for his father. He would Surf the pier and have the liquor salesman walk onto the pier and take his orders while he surfed. A great example of “mixing business with pleasure”. Huntington was pretty sketch my during these times. Surf Liquor was burglarized several times and Dick found himself unable pay the mortgage. He slept in the liquor store and ate baloney sandwiches everyday for several months to try to save the business. He and his girlfriend (s) would sleep in an army cot. He would read these magazines, “TRUE” and “ARGOSY” every night that told stories of beautiful places with Gorgeous Naked Ladies.
At the same time Disneyland was breaking ground on their new theme park and needed to get liquor licenses. He sold the liquor license and paid off their debts and had the money to embark on the trips he read about in the magazines.
First stop was Tahiti, then Australia, South Africa, Egypt, and then Spain to run with the bulls. Sound familiar!!??

Mr. Metz opened the Maui and hired this mother (holding her baby boy) that is standing in front of the shop. I believe her name is Claire. Fast forward 50 or so years later, that child introduced himself to Mr. Metz at a restaurant!!?? That’s just one of the many crazy stories he shared with us.
02/18/2024
We often talk about how much more “MANLY” the older generations were. They were divers, rode motorcycles, skiers, fishermen, and Surfers on top of all that!!?? Surfers back in the day had no wetsuits and 100 lb Surfboards!!? We asked Dick about this and what he thought made him and his buddies such swashbucklers. His answer was pretty simple, “there were less rules”. Listen to this week’s episode !! Thank you for the 📸

1954 Dana Point
Hobie Alter opens the First SurfShop ever, . The first ever TEMPLE OF STOKE.
02/17/2024
Although these stories have been told, they are still worth listening to. Hobie Alter was college dropout, but he was a GENIUS. He invented and created so many wonderful things that people all over the world have enjoyed for generations and into the future.
Dick Metz was the man behind Hobie, who helped take Hobie’s ideas and inventions to market.
Dick is responsible for creating the first “SURFSHOP”. The first shop was in Dana Point, and soon after in Honolulu. It was crazy to hear how much trust that these two friends had. They never had contracts and hardly ever discussed finances. Listen to this week’s episode with !!

It was the early 1940’s, when the world was going through the Great Depression. Mr. Metz had a restaurant on the sand in Laguna Beach. He traded burgers and beers to two young Surf Bums in exchange for babysitting his son Dick.
The Surf Bums were Peanuts Larson and Hevs McClellan. Dick was introduced to Surfing at a very young age, around 6 or 7. There were probably less than 100 surfers in California back in those days. Dick met Hobie Alter later on. The story isn’t possible without Dick Metz.

We sat down with Hobie Surfshop and helped celebrate their 70th Anniversary on Valentine’s Day!

Unfortunately we ran out of time but will have another episode soon! Listen to this week’s episode with !!

“SPEEDER” took a long hiatus from Surfing and the industry. He moved to Idaho to raise a family and became a plumber. After a decade or so he moved back and rekindled his passions. One day on the beach, he ran into his longtime friend and sponsor, Aaron “AP” Pai . needed a new team manager and asked “SPEEDER” if he was interested. “SPEEDER” was making good money as a plumber and was on the union. He also felt he might be out of touch with the youth. But “AP” somehow knew and convinced him to take the job.
All “AP” really needed to say was
“If you work with we’ll go Surfing and go on Surf Trips”.

HAPPY VALENTINES 💘 DAY
Well I couldn’t find a picture of “SPEEDER” with a wetsuit or logo on his Surfboard, so I opted for this photo and song. It seems fitting for Valentines 💘 Day .“SPEEDER” was Team Manager for many years. Many of their riders have said great things about ”SPEEDER”. However if you’re , ‘s fiercest rival at the time, you probably didn’t care much for “SPEEDER”. Industry pioneer and legend Danny “DK” Kwock told me how furious he was when “SPEEDER” snatched local boy Cordell “CORDY” Miller .miller from . “DK” had to go over the top $$ and got him back though.
No love ❤️ lost between them.

“SPEEDER” first sponsor was Paul Burke, Burke Surfboards. After making some finals in the amateur contests, he got noticed by and got a “certificate” to get sponsored through a local Surfshop. He went to and Eric “EJ” John hooked him up. He also got sponsored by Gotcha , which was the hottest new brand at the time. was his first industry job working the warehouse and sometimes picking up Japanese Distributors in Michael Tomson’s .

Back in the day, we used to plaster our bedroom walls with pages from Surfer , Surfing, and BreakOut Magazines. We would find a particular image that resonated with us and imagine ourselves doing what they were doing! Sometimes the pictures were of someone like Gerry Lopez charging into a Pipeline barrel or someone doing a slash right in front of the water photographer!! “SPEEDER” linked up with Chuck Schmid and “got the shot” on several occasions. We wonder how many bedroom walls these pictures may have hung!!?? Listen to this week’s episode Mark “SPEEDER” Reeder!!

“GILLY” has amazing surfing talent. But he knew that he didn’t have the resources to sustain the grind of the WQS. He made a choice to become a school teacher and go to college. “GILLY” loves to work with kids and summers off was ideal for any Surfer. By chance one of his Girlfriends is the daughter of @wchurley.

This is Chris “HAGE-SAN” Saenz. He is one of the BEST HUMANS on Earth. He has been a role model for L8night with Choccy. He is a Family Man, exemplifies Work Ethic, and a pretty damn good Surfer.

“BJC” had some incredible strokes of luck when he came out to Hollywood. He got partnered up with a Professional Football kicker that paid for their apartment and was never there. We asked if he kept modeling to help make ends meet, but he told us that he took a receptionist job at the local Fitness Club. He wanted to “meet people” which is known today as “networking”. Well that job put him in front of Academy Award winner Shelly Winters. It also helped get him chummy with the young upcoming stars like David Faustino @davidfaustino , Brian Austin Green @brianaustingreen , Leonardo DiCaprio @leonardodicaprio !!?? “BJC” apartment became the hangout!
