The 1986 rematch you’ve been waiting for!

Californian style guru Tom Curren vs Australian surf hero Mark Occhilupo. One heat. Two legends. Three reasons to be at Bells Beach this Easter.

The rivalry between Australian wunderkind Mark Occhilupo and California soul champion Tom Curren produced the most exciting competitive clashes in the history of surfing. Their 1986 heat at Bells Beach is critically considered the best heat ever surfed in pro surfing.

During the 1980’s no rivalry was more heralded than the Tom Curren / Mark Occhilupo challenge. Whenever the two surfers came up against each other in heats, sparks flew, temperatures rose and onlookers gathered to witness unmatched and historic wave-riding duels.

“I saw Occy before he became a household name, when he was first breaking out, it was at Jeffreys,” said Curren. “He had so much energy, just pushing every turn with so much speed and power.”

Nat Young stormed into round one of Innersection with his electro-driven part that’s got people talking bout two things: his surfing and his music choice. We caught up with him to find out how he went about building the two-minute section.

SURFING Magazine: How did you hear about innersection.tv?

Nat Young: Just from people taking about it saying, “are you gonna put a part together for that new Taylor Steele video?”
