With the Corona Open at Jeffreys Bay in full swing, in this episode of The Luke Alfred Show we look back at Tom Curren’s epic J-Bay ride there in 1993. Captured by filmmaker, Sonny Miller, and immortalised in the 1996 film, “Searching for Tom Curren”, Curren’s ride was the perfect coming-together.
First, he was surfing royalty.
Second, Miller was keen to make history on his custom-made board and,
Thirdly, a once-banished South Africa was waking to the world. So much for setting the scene, this is Curren’s J-Bay story, a story which is also about the construction of one of surfing’s greatest myths.
