Listen Later

Elder Gods, surfing icons, and early pioneers of the mythical Grajagan, Gerry Lopez and Peter McCabe join us on the The Lineup! Gerry and Peter reminisce on their extended trips to Indonesia that earned them international reputation and fame for their tube riding, crossover surfing, and fearlessness at its virtually perfect waves. They reveal untold stories from East Java, their earliest memories of surfing G-Land, and becoming regulars at the world’s first surf camp there developed by Mike Boyum, G-Land Surf Camp. They discuss surfing for eight to ten hours at a time and eating one meal a day, only after finally coming in from a surf. They reflect on their best memories performing “Blue Angels,” what they called their surfing when they performed crossovers and rode in the tube without ever colliding with each other as they surfed the same wave. They look back on Peter’s history, how he got his start and his competitive stint in surfing, and their appearances in various films throughout their career. They wrap up the conversation astonished by the caliber of surfing today, amazed by its progression since they started, answering listener questions, and giving Peter his first go with the Lightning Round.
