Rusty Moran

Rusty Moran in the 90’s was a dedicated Christian surfer who used to regularily take risks that many other riders would not dream about. Like surfing massive Cloudbreaks in Hawaii and paddling out to 20ft plus Waimea on your first trip aged 17 or night surfing on full moons. When Rusty hooked up with photographer Jon Frank it was a match made in heaven as Franky is just as crazy as Rusty when it comes to pushing boundaries. Photo Frank Circa 90’s.
