Immortals of Australian Surfing Nat Young Known as ‘The Animal’ in his glory years, Nat Young brought a muscular new approach to surfing by riding the wave rather than the surfboard. Although he had to play second fiddle to Midget Farrelly at the dawn of the surf boom in Australia in the early 1960s, Robert ‘Nat’ Young was never going to accept that role for long and he didn’t, soon eclipsing his then friend and mentor.

O californiano Nat Young usou as redes sociais para fazer um novo comentário a respeito da polêmica nota 4.03 obtida em sua última onda no round 3 do Challenger Series em Snapper Rocks 🗣️ Apesar de a WSL ter admitido que sua nota foi subavaliada, Nat não gostou do fato de a Liga ter argumentado que sua pontuação não seria suficiente para virar o placar e rebateu o comunicado 👇🏽 Ele escreveu que, pelo que entendeu, a onda foi perdida (pelos juízes) e isso resultou em um 4.03. O californiano acrescentou ainda que nunca concordou que a nota fosse 5 ou 6 ✍️ Deixe seu comentário 🗣️ 📸: @wsl #SnapperRocks #WSL #NatYoung
Só pra variar temos polêmica de arbitragem na WSL... A liga se manifestou sobre o 🍴 no norte-americano Nat Young!

Dan is a great surfer in his own right… but that would never be enough to show his new surfboard designs worked. I recently read an article from Tracks Magazine August 1981. They interview @simonanderson1 and #NatYoung about their new tri fin designs. The public were so skeptical and reluctant to make the transition. Enter @stueykennedy at the U.S. Open. Stuey put on a masterclass riding one of @tomo_surfboards futuristic surfboards. It was one of the rare times when judges threw high scores at something outside the norm. #TheDustUp #TomoSurfboards #StateOfTheArtSurfboards

Yea, it’s started when #natyoung won the world comp in 1966 on a board called “Sam”. It was a smaller board, but #jocksutherland rode for @harbour_surfboards and placed 2nd to Nat on a #cheater board, after the contest things changed, boards got smaller. Harbour hung in there and adapted during the #shortboardrevolution , he also helped design the modern fin box system… @the_longest_ride_movie

Great book if you’re into surf history. I just read that the first ever Malibu Surfboard Riding Championship was held at my home break, North Avalon, back in 1961. My favourite spot to surf and a great place to grow up as a grom 🤙🏼 #natsnatandthatsthat #surfhistory #natyoung #australia

1966 World Champion Nat Young surfing Uluwatu for his first time in 1973 when David Sumpter took Wayne Lynch to Bali after watching “Morning Of The Earth 🌎 “. Nat didn’t join Albe Falzon , Rusty Miller and Steve Cooney when they put Uluwatu and Ball on the world map …. But was obviously impressed enough by the “Islands Of The Gods” as the rest of us were after watching the movie 🍿.

The Hot Generation A brilliant film by Paul Witzig mostly shot during 1966/67 that featured the most talented young surfers who defined the end of the longboard era. And with a hot soundtrack by The Sunsets who would later morph into the legendary prog rockers Tamam Shud. There was a belated release of the soundtrack sessions on vinyl back in 2015 that’s worth searching for by the way!

The Animal model is a re-creation of a shape Donald used to make for Nat during the late 80’s and early 90’s! This particular board was shaped by Donald’s longtime right hand man, Tommy Maus, and was made for Ohana member @kaitlin.mikkelsen 👀🔥🙌 We’re surprised to see this one stick around for so long but that just means it’s hanging around for you to come grab it!

WAYNE LYNCH EVOLUTION 7’10” x 22.875” x 2.625” 14.5 LBS In Paul Witzig’s film, The Hot Generation (1968), the Australian filmmaker documented the first stages of the Australian shortboard movement in 1966-67, culminating in the classic V-Bottom’s finest moment as ridden by Bob McTavish and Nat Young at Honolua Bay in late 1967. Released in early 1968 “HG” got a lot of surfers thinking of alternatives to the straight lines being ridden in the nose-riding period. Inspired by the breakthrough that McTavish’s new designs were providing, Aussie surfers were convinced that they could continue to reduce a board’s overall dimensions and expand on the performance that the V-Bottom encouraged. New ideas were being built and tested at an unbelievable pace. Fortunately, Witzig kept right on documenting the progress throughout 1968. Only a year later, in early 1969, Witzig released the second film of his trilogy, Evolution. This film had a major impact on the future of the sport. For many young surfers (myself included) the surfing of Nat Young and especially Wayne Lynch was mind-expanding, ushering in an almost magical new approach to wave-riding. One of the boards ridden in the film was Wayne’s reassessment of the Velzy Pig shape of the early ‘50s. Shorter, much, much lighter and sporting a Greenough-influenced fin design, the Pig again took surfing performance to another level. A number of variations of the design were ridden throughout the film and astute observers will notice the design shown here is also being ridden on Wayne’s iconic cutback featured on the movie’s poster. Ultimately, Witzig’s three films, The Hot Generation, Evolution and Sea of Joy serve as a great documentation of one of surfing’s most exciting eras. The films are now easily available and definitely worth a serious viewing. - Guy Motil For more information on this and many other great surfboards check out www.surfboardquarterly.com and upcoming issues of SURFBOARD QUARTERLY. © Guy Motil #surfing #paulwitzig #waynelynchsurfboards #natyoung #surfboards #surfboardhistory #historyofsurfing

At the Aldeburgh Art Fair we are excited to showcase some of the most talented contemporary artists working in East Anglia today alongside some of the celebrated names of Modern British art. This superb oil by the contemporary artist Nat Young from @cobboldandjudd perhaps bridges the two, which both approaches the Suffolk landscape with an invigorating dynamism while also recalling the region’s esteemed tradition of landscape painters. ☁️ Born in Pontefract in Yorkshire, Nat Young studied medicine in London before working as a general practitioner based in Colchester. His initial interest in art was principally as a collector of early English watercolours - however, it wasn’t long before the rural East Anglian landscape inspired Young to take up drawing and watercolour painting. Young now works as a professional artist; he has held a number of one-man shows in The David Wood Gallery in Dedham and The Digby Gallery in Colchester, and has participated in mixed exhibitions across the East of England. The artist undoubtedly excels at abstracted landscapes. His free, expressive brushwork captures the region’s big skies and fluctuating weather, while his palette remains rooted in the earthen tones of the first plein air painters. It is perhaps unsurprising that Young should cite both the work of David Tress (1955) and the 19th century Norwich School of Artists as inspiration. Young’s own work takes on something of a timeless quality, as his paintings manage to distill that all important sense of place. It is such a treat to bring this East Anglian artist to new audiences next week - please come visit us @ballroomartsaldeburgh to see this work, and art by more contemporary talents, from the 22 - 27th June. #aldeburghartfair #artfair #aldeburgh #aldeburghart #art #artdealer #artgallery #artcollector #artbuyer #artoftheday #suffolkart #eastanglianartists #landscape #landscapepainter #landscapepainter #pleinairpainting #natyoung #contemporaryart #ballroomartsaldeburgh
