“I killed the longboard,” Greenough once famously claimed. “They were slow and clunky, I liked to go fast.” An eccentric genius kneeboarder from Santa Barbara, in the mid 60’s Greenough took thin, flexible ‘Spoon’ kneeboards to Australia’s east coast right points and blew minds with all new lines. Greenough’s deep tubes and full rail cutbacks helped usher in an all new approach to wave riding via the shortboard revolution, while his groundbreaking 1970 16mm PoV tube movie Echoes so impressed Pink Floyd they donated the soundtrack. Floyd!
