The pig made that Malibu famous

from The Wipeout Weekly - Surf Podcast

The first time I heard about "Velzy's Pig," I imagined a Malibu surfer walking a little fat pig on a leash. Turns out the pig that made Malibu famous wasn't an animal—it was a surfboard. In the late 1950s, legendary shaper Dale Velzy created the Pig, one of the most influential longboard designs ever made. Funny-looking but revolutionary, it changed how surfers rode waves—and helped cement Malibu's place in surf history.
