"Curren was the spiritual leader of an eclectic band of surf gypsies. Carefully selected by behind-the-scenes svengali Derek Hynd."

Tim Baker | The Rip Curl Story

"You know what held it together was Sonny's personality. He had this way of cheering people up when they were not feeling so good. So that's what he was able to do, look at the hilarity as opposed to looking at the hassle."

Tom Curren

"We were inspired by our opportunity to be given this glorious pathway, and there was no Surfline. Many times, our endeavors were rewarded by our commitment to believe, like buying a lotto ticket. We didn't rely on guarantees."

Sonny Miller

"Sonny was probably one of the best people I've ever traveled with. He had the most upbeat nature. You could be in the most diabolical situation and Sonny is all happy and ready to go."
