Greg Noll at Pipeline
Probably the most famous and recognizable photo in the sport of surfing taken by world renowned surfer, photographer, and artist John Severson... A short while later, Greg became the first person ever to ride outside Pipeline.

Kaena Point
Billed as the biggest wave ever photographed to hit the islands of Hawaii in recorded history. The surf got even bigger that day wiping out the fisherman shacks in the foreground.

Greg Noll
Pioneer big-wave surfer, Greg Noll, was called Da Bull by his fellow surfers for his stubborn, straightforward and aggressive approach to the sport. His approach to life in general wasn’t much different. His life revolved around surfing and everything the sport engendered. He made surfboards and surf films. He pioneered modern surfing in Australia. He discovered Mazatlan as a surf spot. He was the first to ride the fearsome waves at Waimea Bay and Outside Pipeline on Oahu’s North Shore. He brawled and caroused with men, charmed and entertained women. Above all, he was Da Bull, one of the bravest and best of the big wave riders of his or anyone’s era.
My Story
I (Sharon) first became involved with surf art after attending my brother-in-law, Greg Noll's, birthday party on Oahu in 1997. Greg's wife, my sister, Laura, always said she would get me into the surfing "business" one day. After the party, where I met so many interesting and very fun people, I started Surf Art, etc. Now, over the years, and more birthday parties later, I was able to spend more time with my sister and Greg and the rest of their (our) family. This includes their "family" of friends--what cool people!
