About this listen
Jock Sutherland, The Mystic Surfer
Jock Sutherland isn’t just a name in surfing history; he’s a spirit, a symbol of the moment when surfing began to evolve into something deeper, more intuitive, and more expressive. Emerging in the late 1960s as a counterpoint to the competitive drive of his peers, Jock brought something different to the lineup: a touch of mysticism, an almost shamanic connection to the wave. Known for his flowing style, innovative tube riding, and philosophical take on life, Jock stood out as a surfer who wasn’t just chasing waves; he was listening to them.
In this rare and intimate interview, recorded nearly 20 years ago for The Still Point, Jock reflects on the ocean as a living force, the evolution of surfing, and the inner life of a surfer. What does it mean to belong to the sea? And how do we carry that experience into the rest of our lives?
