Tom Curren Surf Shop

Rip Curl store dedicated to Tom Curren was opened in his hometown of Santa Barbra CA. What is so special or different about this store that separates it from other Rip Curl surf shops? Well, the store is filled with things related to Tom Curren. Stuff like a signed Tom Curren surfboard hanging from the ceiling, his movie being played on the screen etc…

“I was first sponsored by Rip Curl when I was 15, that was back in 1979 here in Santa Barbra at the Channel Island store.  I was super pumped, Claw had come up to meet me, it’s just one of those times in your life you always remember. Something special kind of like here at this store today.”
