The Drop #005 — Joel Tudor

A conversation with one of the most opinionated and influential surfers of the last twenty-five years, Joel Tudor. After running through a class at Studio 540, the jiu jitsu studio Joel is heavily invested in, Joel and Stab's Editor in Chief Ashton Goggans sit down at his North County San Diego residence of over two decades and discuss many a matter near and dear to Joel's heart: jiu-jitsu; Pipeline, and his early days on the North Shore; the small army of icons and legends of the sport who took him under wing at a young age; weed, cocaine, creativity and jock mentality; skateboarding, longboarding, and the secrets to longevity, and much, much more. Music: "Son of Neckbone," The Beastie Boys. From "The In Side From Way Out." 1995.
