Manage episode 517628762 series 3663735
The Greg Noll Da Cat model surfboard is one of the most sought-after surfboards of all time. One early first-generation board sold for around $34,500, and even the 250 limited-edition reissues made in the 1990s—hand-signed by both Dora and Noll—are highly prized by collectors.
Today, I’ll be reading four stories from Drew Kampion’s incredible book Greg Noll: The Art of the Surfboard. The selected stories are “The Greg Noll Da Cat Model,” “Me, Miki, and Da Cat,” “A Tale of Two Cats,” and “The Copy Cat.” There’s so much great material in this book, but I wanted to share these particular stories the highlighted Greg Noll’s relationship with Miki Dora and their collaboration on the legendary and much sought-after Da Cat surfboard models.
