At his peak he was very influential in the east coast surfing scene, plus masterful at small wave contest surfing.

At a time of transition in the sport he personified the commercializations of the sport, leading the vanguard of professional surfing. Much to the chagrin of Soul Surfers.

It was an interesting crossroads for the sport.

Condolences to his family.

Thanks for providing this commentary, Rich.

You are so right about Propper's involvement in the advancement of pro surfing.
