Episode Synopsis

Welcome to The Still Point Tapes: Echoes from the Lineup, a podcast that brings you the complete, uncut voices of surfing’s great pioneers, drawn from interviews recorded nearly two decades ago for the documentary film, The Still Point. Today’s episode is a journey into the mind of the late Mike Doyle, surfer, shaper, inventor, artist, and all-around waterman. Known for his grace on a longboard and his deep connection to the ocean, Doyle helped define the soul of California surf culture in the 1960s and beyond. He was as comfortable riding waves as he was shaping them, always pushing the boundaries of what it meant to live a life in tune with the sea. In this conversation, Doyle reflects on surfing as an expression, the consciousness of waves, and what the ocean teaches us about life itself. His voice is steady, thoughtful, sometimes playful, always grounded in a lifetime of experience. Here’s Mike Doyle, raw and unfiltered, from The Still Point Tapes.
