Surfing's Untamed Spirit: A Tribute to Butch Van Artsdalen - Interview with Douglas Cavanaugh - The Temple of Surf - The Podcast

Welcome to a new episode of The Temple of Surf Podcast, where we dive deep into the lives, stories, and legacies of the individuals who shaped surf culture. This week, we're honored to be joined by author Douglas Cavanaugh, who takes us on an unforgettable journey into the life of one of surfing's most fearless, enigmatic, and often misunderstood figures, Butch Van Artsdalen. In an age before Instagram and sponsorship deals, before the spotlight found Pipeline, there were a few raw, rebellious souls who pushed surfing into uncharted territory. Among them stood Butch, sun-bleached, wild-eyed, and ahead of his time. Known as the original “Mr. Pipeline,” Butch Van Artsdalen was a pioneer, a renegade, and a symbol of surfing's raw, unfiltered edge. With flowing blond hair, a fiery attitude, and an unmatched willingness to charge waves others wouldn't touch, Butch defined what it meant to be a "hellman" long before the term became mainstream. Douglas Cavanaugh, author of the evocative book Remembering Butch Van Artsdalen, helps us peel back the myth and get to know the man behind the legend. In this episode, we talk about Butch's early days in La Jolla, his time on the North Shore, and the impact he had on generations of surfers who followed him. Douglas brings rich, personal insights and a deep respect for Butch's contribution to surf history, both as a rider of impossible waves and as a misunderstood cultural icon. Butch wasn't just a big wave charger, he was a transition figure, bridging the clean-cut innocence of 1950s California surfing with the more radical, countercultural explosion of the 1960s and '70s. He was there when Pipeline was still considered unsurfable. He was part of the Duke Invitational when it was the Super Bowl of surfing. He hung with surf legends, appeared in surf films, and represented the kind of raw individuality that surfing once celebrated before it became polished and packaged. And yet, for all his achievements, Butch's story also carries a poignant edge, a reflection of how surfing culture sometimes fails to honor its own. He struggled with the weight of fame, with the expectations of a community that at times didn't know how to hold space for someone like him. His later years were marked by personal challenges, and his untimely death at just 38 left a void in the surf world that many still feel today. Douglas Cavanaugh's work is more than just biography, it's a tribute, a historical record, and a deeply human portrait of a man who gave his all to the waves and left behind a legacy that deserves more recognition. In our conversation, we explore not only the radical drops and critical turns that defined Butch's surf style, but also the emotional landscape he navigated—his highs, his lows, his friendships, and the cultural shift that surrounded him. This episode is for anyone who loves surf history, who wants to understand the roots of modern surf bravery, and who believes in honoring those who paved the way, especially the ones who weren't always understood in their time. So whether you're listening from your car, your board shaping bay, or watching the sets roll in from a beach somewhere in the world, settle in. This is a story about soul, risk, rebellion, and remembering. This is the story of Butch Van Artsdalen, told with heart and depth by someone who truly gets it. Let's paddle out into history with Douglas Cavanaugh, right here on The Temple of Surf Podcast.

In this week's episode of The Temple of Surf Podcast, we welcome a special guest whose name carries deep resonance in the world of surfboard shaping: Joshua Martin. Son of legendary shaper Terry Martin, Joshua has not only inherited a profound legacy, he's forged his own path with authenticity, humility, and a deep respect for the craft. Our conversation begins by tracing his early years growing up in Capistrano Beach, California, where the shaping bay was his playground and the scent of resin and foam filled the air. Joshua reflects on his father's influence, not just in terms of technical knowledge, but in the values Terry instilled, integrity, patience, and a relentless dedication to quality. He shares beautiful memories of watching his dad shape thousands of boards for Hobie Surfboards, and how shaping wasn't just a job in the Martin household, it was a way of life. But this episode is far from a nostalgic glance backward. Joshua brings us into the present, offering insight into his own shaping philosophy. He speaks passionately about handcrafting each board with intention, ensuring that every rail, rocker, and line serves both performance and personal expression. For Joshua, a surfboard isn't just equipment, it's a functional piece of art, a tool for joy, and sometimes even a spiritual object. His deep respect for the natural elements — from sustainably sourced wood to the rhythm of the waves,guides his approach to design. We also explore the evolving role of craftsmanship in the era of machine-made boards and mass production. Joshua doesn't shy away from technology, but he stands firm in the belief that hand shaping offers something irreplaceable, a human connection. Whether he's creating a custom single fin or a modern fish, each of his boards is infused with the soul of the craftsman. It's a process he describes as “listening to the blank,” allowing the shape to emerge through collaboration with the material and the surfer. Throughout the episode, Joshua also touches on his collaborations with other artists, his love for woodwork, and the deep cultural history that shapes his work, from Hawaiian traditions to California counterculture. He opens up about the challenges of carrying a family name with such weight, and how he's learned to honor it without being confined by it. For anyone passionate about surf culture, this episode is a reminder of the values that ground the sport,,authenticity, community, respect for nature, and the enduring power of craft. Joshua Martin is not just continuing a legacy; he's shaping a meaningful future for surfing, one board at a time.

This Week on The Temple of Surf Podcast: Surf Legends Dick Metz & Richard Yelland Share the Untold Story That Changed Surf Culture Forever This week's episode is truly something special. We're joined by two remarkable guests whose lives and work have shaped how the world sees surfing: surf legend Dick Metz and award-winning filmmaker Richard Yelland. Dick Metz isn't just a name in the history of surfing, he is surf history. From riding Waikiki waves in the 1940s to traveling the globe with nothing but a surfboard and a dream, Metz's life reads like an adventure novel. His firsthand stories span continents, cultures, and decades. He helped spark the early surf travel movement and inspired generations of wave-chasers long before the world knew what “surf culture” even meant. Alongside him is Richard Yelland, a filmmaker whose deep love for surfing and storytelling has led him to create some of the most powerful documentaries in the genre. Known for his work on films like Floating: The Nathan Geller Story and Between the Lines, Yelland has a rare gift: he captures the soul of surfing. His latest film—centered around Dick Metz's extraordinary life—traces the origins of a movement that changed everything. In this episode, we dive deep into how a single journey around the world, taken by Metz in the 1950s, helped ignite what would become a global surf phenomenon. That journey, filled with untold stories, unexpected discoveries, and cross-cultural connections, would later inspire the narrative of one of surfing's most iconic films. We talk about what it was like to surf in a time before crowds, before sponsors, before the industry. Metz shares personal anecdotes about hitchhiking across continents, living with local communities. Richard Yelland explains how he brought those forgotten moments back to life on screen and why this story needed to be told now more than ever. But this episode is more than a conversation, it's a tribute. A tribute to the pioneers who paved the way. To the wanderers who looked at a map and saw a wave, to the storytellers who kept those legends alive. Whether you're a lifelong surfer, a film lover, or someone drawn to the magic of human adventure, this episode offers a rare glimpse into the soul of surfing, raw, real, and profoundly inspiring.

The Temple of Surf Podcast – This Week's Guest: Alessandro Piu – Italian Surfing Champion, Waterman, and Global Ambassador of Mediterranean Surf Culture This week on The Temple of Surf Podcast, we are honored to welcome one of Italy's finest surfers and a true ambassador of European surfing Alessandro Piu. Hailing from the sunny shores of Sardinia, Alessandro has carved out a remarkable path in professional surfing, breaking boundaries and making history as one of Italy's most decorated and recognizable surf athletes. With a fearless approach to the ocean, a deep respect for the environment, and a hunger for powerful waves around the globe, Alessandro embodies the spirit of the modern waterman. From Mediterranean breaks to the hollow reefs of Indonesia, from the rugged coastlines of Ireland to the barrels of Tahiti, he has proven that you don't need to be born in Hawaii or Australia to be world-class. Alessandro's story is one of determination, adaptability, and passion. Growing up in a country where surfing was still a niche sport, he discovered the ocean at a young age and quickly fell in love with the rhythm of the waves. Sardinia's varied coastline, ranging from wind-swept beach breaks to slabby reefs, became his training ground. With limited resources and exposure compared to surfers in California or Australia, Alessandro pushed himself hard, rising through the ranks with raw talent and tireless dedication. He quickly caught the attention of the European surf scene, earning titles at both national and international levels. Over the years, he became Italian Champion, represented Italy in ISA World Surfing Games and WSL Qualifying Series events, and participated in prestigious contests. His powerful, expressive style, especially in heavier surf, set him apart. Whether drawing sharp lines on a six-foot point break or charging thick barrels, Alessandro has consistently proven himself as one of the most complete surfers to ever emerge from Italy. But Alessandro is more than just a competitor, he's also a true explorer and surf culture storyteller. He has traveled extensively, surfed some of the most remote and challenging waves in the world, and helped shed light on Italy's unique surf geography. In recent years, he's taken on a role as an environmental advocate, using his platform to speak out about ocean conservation, pollution, and the preservation of coastal ecosystems. His involvement in sustainable surfboard initiatives and support of grassroots surf communities reflect his deep commitment to the planet and to future generations of surfers. On social media and in person, Alessandro has become a role model for aspiring surfers across Europe. His down-to-earth character, humility, and passion for wave riding resonate with fans from every background. He regularly collaborates with major surf brands, independent filmmakers, and ocean-focused nonprofits to amplify the message of connection between sport and sustainability. In this exclusive conversation with The Temple of Surf, Alessandro opens up about his early days surfing in Sardinia, the challenges he faced building a pro career from Italy, and his favorite destinations across the world. We also dive into his mindset during competitions, how he stays motivated during off-seasons, and what it feels like to represent his country on an international stage. Plus, he shares insights on the evolution of the Mediterranean surf scene, the importance of culture in surfing, and the legacy he hopes to leave. Whether you're a surfer from the coast of Biarritz, in Hawaii, or someone paddling out for the first time in Italy, Alessandro Piu's story is an inspiration. His journey proves that passion, grit, and respect for the ocean can take you to incredible places, even when you come from a country without a long-standing surf tradition. Tune in to this week's episode of The Temple of Surf Podcast for a raw, insightful, and powerful chat with one of Europe's top surfing voices. Alessandro Piu reminds us all that the soul of surfing knows no borders and that wherever there are waves and a deep love for the ocean, greatness can be found.

In late May, Costa Rican police arrived in central Pavones at 4 a.m.—dressed in body armor, rifles in hand, and gas masks on—to escort demolition crews. Their mission: tear down local businesses. Residents, caught off guard, had to scramble just to salvage food and goods from inside the buildings. Shockingly, the local government of Golfito appears to be backing developers and demolition teams over the very citizens they were elected to serve.At the heart of the issue is a controversial slate of proposed luxury real estate developments.

The Temple of Surf Podcast – This Week's Guest: Jeff “Doc” Lausch of Surf Prescriptions This week on The Temple of Surf Podcast, we welcome one of the most innovative minds in surfboard shaping, Jeff “Doc” Lausch, the legendary founder of Surf Prescriptions. With a career spanning over four decades, Doc is known not just for pushing the boundaries of surfboard design, but for injecting punk rock energy, fearless experimentation, and personal creativity into every board that leaves his shaping room. From the vibrant surf scene of Huntington Beach in the ‘80s and ‘90s to the global stage of competitive surfing, Surf Prescriptions has always stood out as a brand that blends high performance with bold individuality. Doc's boards have been ridden by some of the most radical surfers of all time and many underground legends whose careers were shaped—literally and figuratively—by his work. In this episode, we dive into Jeff's incredible journey: how he got started in shaping, the philosophy behind Surf Prescriptions, his influences in both art and surfing, and what it means to stay authentic in an industry that constantly shifts with trends. We also discuss the evolution of surf culture, the role of experimentation in board design, and why some of the most unforgettable rides happen on the most unorthodox shapes. Whether you're a surfboard design geek, a fan of 1980s surf punk culture, or just love stories from the heart of the shaping bay, this episode is a must-listen. Jeff shares candid insights on staying true to your vision, the connection between artist and athlete, and the value of trusting intuition over convention.
