By the early 1970's the North Shore of Oahu, Hawaii was already established as the world's ultimate surfing Mecca. It was a true proving ground for any surfer who wanted to play on the main stage. Every winter, the best surfers in the world converged on the North Shore to test their skills in the most radical waves known to man, but it was also a cultural crossroads, a melting pot of surfers and stoners where weirdness was the norm.
The lawless atmosphere, consisting of gangs and drugs and hippies and surfboards, was often described as 'the wild west'.
This is where humble beginnings of a professional sport were born.
