24.01.2022 Mr. Tom Curren with Richo and his book in Azores Portugal in Sept 2018!

24.01.2022 Here's a throwback from last year's WSL where I won the Expression Sessions. It was fun playing with these great masters!

23.01.2022 This is the board that brought Terry his first victory on the world circuit, the OM Bali Pro at Uluwatu in 1982, having placed second in 1980 and 1981. The smaller quad fins were added later in an attempt to keep this favourite board going long after its use-by-date. He backed up his Bali breakthrough with a win in Brazil soon after. The Tracks cover was a celebration of Terry's first major win.

23.01.2022 What a perfect #ThrowbackThursday! Hanging out with legends from left to right! Yew!!

22.01.2022 Tonight at 7pm, Local legends, Richo, Mick Lowe & Occy, will be interviewed by Ain't that Swell at the Uni Bar. Come down for a guaranteed laugh and intriguing storytime. And pick up a signed copy of Richo's new book, just in time for Christmas!! #surflegends #surfers #surfingworld #surfergirls #billabong, #wollongong #unibar #swellnet https://tickets.oztix.com.au//4aebc223-6200-4ff4-b228-b52d

21.01.2022 If you’ve been frothing over recent footage of perfect, uncrowded Padang, you might want to hear the story of its discovery in 1975 and the first epic day it was surfed, straight from the horse’s mouth. Richard Harvey and Dick Hoole were there that first time along with Doris Eltherington, Michael Little and Peter McCabe. The results made it into ‘Tubular Swells’, Dick’s classic movie, and they tell the whole story in Richo: The Terry Richardson Story. https://www.amazon.com//dp/B08DXZ34BG/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0

21.01.2022 Check out MATT Archbold - ARCHY's two new 5'10 V8 and all-rounder ready for shredding! Just add glass... #happymonday surfers! Thank goodness for spring!

20.01.2022 "Archi" bold back on track and where he should be! On a Richo board and loving it! (V8 channel bottom)

20.01.2022 The twin fin which took him to third place in the 1980 Coke contest at Narrabeen, having first qualified for the Worlds richest surfing contest in 1975 by surfing through the trials. This board was the result of a design collaboration with Jack Knight at Fluid Foils, introducing channel-bottoms at Skipps when Terry returned there to shape. The channels are soft, rounded corrugations and represent the origin of the harder, squarer channels that would characterise the boards that Terry shaped for Matt Archbold when he was the worlds best free surfer.

19.01.2022 Archy and his Richo Boards! So stoked!

13.01.2022 I cant wait to catch up with Matt Archbold in California. Archie was the wonderkid of American surfing in the mid-80s, and he performed a lot of his breakout surfing on Richo boards. The magazine spreads and movie footage of Archies latest mind-blowing move firmly established my shaping on the world stage, especially California and Japan. Ill be taking a fresh quiver of Richo's to the States. I cant wait to see what he does with them! "As Matt was rinsing off under the... shower after his heat I approached him and gave him my commiserations. He replied with a Thanks dude, trying to conceal the disappointment I knew he was feeling. I asked if I could check out his board. When I took a close look at this thing he was trying to surf I was amazed at the things he was able to do. The board was a virtual handbrake on his surfing. Would you mind if I made you a new board? I think you might like what I have in mind. Im not sure Matt really knew what he was in for, or even gave it a second thought, but nodded his agreement."

06.01.2022 Tommy Curren with his Richo Book! I'll be in San Clemente and Topanga, California next month sometime in September 20-30th. Can't wait to catch up with you guys! Stay tuned.

05.01.2022 "Matts influence as the leader of a group of hot new American surfers was unprecedented. Brad Gerlach, Matt Kechele, John Shimooka, Christian Fletcher, Dino Andino, Charlie Kuhn all tried Archies boards and found something to like, ordering their own. Young Aussies like Nicky Wood and Rob Bain jumped into the mix, my boards were traded around, tested in free surfs and soon found their way into competition and onto the podium. Everyone wanted what Matt had." (Richo, the Terr...y Richardson Story) In 1985 I had become one of the worlds most sought-after shapers, driven largely by Matt Archbolds impossible surfing. Archie used to be a regular visitor to my home in East Corrimal, surfing Wollongong breaks before we headed back out to do battle on the tour. Ill be catching up with Matt for the first time in almost thirty years when the Richo Road Trip heads to San Clemente. Look out grommet!
