Dirty Water #50 with David Rensin, the celebrated author of Miki Dora biography, All For a Few Perfect Waves.

Rensin transcribed one million words in the pursuit of the truth, relatively speaking, of Miki Dora, surfing’s great Voodoo god, for his book All For a Few Perfect Waves.

Dora was style in the water, suits out of it, convertibles, Hollywood and movie stars.

He was also a thief, a scammer and an impossible loner who travelled the world chasing adventure and empty waves, his only real friend a King Charles spaniel called Scooter Boy.

Rensin has been a surfer since the sixties and is an author whose skills make me dizzy.
