Archy is the innovator. His airs were revolutionary. His hack was my favorite. Built for speed , indeed.

I liked Archy during the Wave Warriors era, his head snaps and look backs with the long hair was awesome. Also, he had the raddest air brushes on his board. The indian head on the T7C was all time!!!

I lived in San Clemente from 85-89, and used to see him on the Lowers trail, 204, and at parties all the time. He rode white airbrushed Town and Countrys with black fins and then I got a board "just like one of archies". He was like the Clint astwood of San clemente back then. Everybody wanted to be him, nobody wanted to fight him.

Having grown up in the early 80's I know arch was a revolutionary in surfing. It's all about having fun and he is the funnest of them all. You rock arch, keep kickin ass.

Archy's surfing epitomizes the true essence of the youthful lifestyle of surfing: rebellious, radical, wild, pure, free, and fast. He is truly a California surfing icon.
