Jeff Spicoli:

"Oh Gnarly! 420!"

Kind of sums it all up IMO.

I think that "Oh Just One More" is my personal philosophy on a lot of things anyways

If we're doing Spicolli (i.e mulitple Oscar winner Sean Penn), you have to add in his other 2 famous ones:

"I just look that wave in the eye and say, Hey bud lets party!"

and also (correct the wording if necessary, I'm not 100% sure on this one) "All I need is a tasty wave, and cool buzz and I'll be all right!"

Fat Face have a good t-shirt quote, but the designs are always sailing related. If they ever put this slogan on a surf related tee, I'm having it:

"better a bad day on the water than a good day in the office"

Surfing is very much like making love. It always feels good, no matter how many times you've done it.

I like the surf film Big Wednesday - and one (of many) quotes I really laughed at was:
" I did not piss in your steam iron " ! LOL :lol:

Here's one i quite like;
‘The wave is just a minor aspect in the surf, it’s not the quality of the wave but what the surfer makes of it’
another that made me laugh is ;
“Surfing is very much like making love. It always feels good, no matter how many times you've done it.”

"A bad day surfing is better than a good day working"

"Love and waves are all we need in these dark days"

- Whats so special about surfing?
- Whats so special about the wind? Surfing is to... be with that mystery. To ride that mystery for as long as you can. And then when it's over that's cool because you know what? You were there, in line and on time.

I can't remember which Pipeline local does this but apparently whenever a real nice set comes in he says "nobody moves nobody gets hurt" everyone else pulls back then he takes the wave, I wish I had that control at my local. :-D

"Surfing wave is the only way to so intimately fraternize with such prodigious amounts energy without being wholly annihilated..and sometimes still. Catching wave is like riding the explosion of an atomic reaction with the grace of dexterous dancer and the serenity of ethereal fields that even an staunch atheist would find god in. The essence of surfing is so meshed with the innate functions of our nature, that the experience is nothing less that the marriage of our soul with the raw essence of our earthly universe."

not a surf quote but a great one related to it
