Like all sports, surfing has always had its heroes. But while many come and go, true heroes are never forgotten. Their legends only grow. In the world of surfing, no surfer proves this point better than California's classic son, Tom Curren, while curren came to power in the mid 80's with back to back world titles, he became a legend in 1990. After a three year hiatus he reappeared and started from scratch, dominating the worl of pro surfing in a way that can never be repeated. It's hard to pinpoint why Curren's legacy outweighs even his three incredible titles. Kelley Slater has long since passed him and others like Andy Irons have matched it. Maybe it's the fact that Curren won all his titles in front of huge crowds instead of on remote reefs. Perhaps it's his reluctant hero appeal that adds to his mystique. Or maybe it's the fact that to this day he still holds the record for mour tour victories over any other surfer... Even Slater.A Documentary by Alan GibbyNarrated by Gerry Lopez & Featuring music by Tom Curren
