- Tony Roberts reveals his secrets to continue to still improve his high surfing level every year and the keys to keeping the continued progression and stoke levels firing on all cylinders.
Most know TR's name for the many films he produced, and photos published on the covers of all the major surf magazines, as well as staff photographer for Quiksilver, O'Neill and many other brands back in the era of a surf industry, however he has dedicated the last 20+ years of his life to surfing, yoga and nutrition and the results are inspiring for anyone interested in performance surfing longevity.

You wanted to inspire and you have! I'm 50 and my goal is to surf on my 80th birthday! I love hearing you singing along. What's the first song ("It's time to shine") called?
Epic! Thanks so much Nicholas. Yes, "Time To Shine"
@@RealSurfStories Thanks man, but I can't find it on UA-cam or Spotify. Any more details? p.s. don't want to focus just on the music, your surfing has beautiful flow!
@@NicholasHerriman Thank you very much. here is a download link to the song! www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/hlkpma150g8j7xbh360o4/time-to-shine_tuaniz.mp3?rlkey=7znijo40vj71a5ql86kfxazdd&dl=0
@@RealSurfStories Thank you man....Wait you're an epic DJ as well? I'll be surfing in at the wave pool in Melbourne, Australia tomorrow and that track will probably be in my head. Thanks for all the good vibes you're bringing to this planet Tony Roberts.
Right on TR. I'm a vegetarian also,no alcohol,smoke,or drugs. At 67 years old I surf everyday the waves are good because of my clean lifestyle. I live right on the beach so I walk miles ,and miles,swim,do push ups ,sqats,lunges etc.i keep riding very short performance boards to keep my edge.The stoke burns hot still. Pura Vida desde Costa Rica 😎
So stoked to hear that. Very inspiring 🙏
56 year old long time surfer...out of the groove since covid...recovering from some injuries too...seeing physio. Good motivation here to get back into surf shape!
You can do it!
I have one mate who's 62, still surfing with us, does yoga, keeps active, another 55, same, and I'm 48 and stronger than humans 20 years younger than me! Cheers to you1
You guys are on it!! 💯
Nice mate. I’m 48 and hit gym, walk lots and yoga for health and to surf better.
Mate! Thank you for sharing this, its genuinely so inspiring!
Sick Tony. Stoked for you. More like this please. Very motivating.
Thanks JJ! Will do!!
You still have good style. Solid layback snaps. I am 48 still trying to push myself as well. But get crappy waves 80% of time. Good waves to practice on are the key.
Good on ya', TR. I'm 53 and fitter than ever. I pretty much suck at surfing, but I suck less now than I ever have. Who knows, maybe in 7 more years I'll be a little closer to your level!
Stick with it!!
Will always remember TR busting sizeable airs seemingly over me at negra decades ago and being inspired to keep progressing as, even then, he seemed like an older guy. Truth be told, the guy just rips. Keep at it TR.
Thanks TR. Nice inspiration I used to surf places like Puerto Escondido Mex, Sunset Beach Oahu Hi, ect. I m 62 years old now. I've recovered from TSR(Total ShoulderReplacement ) and a miniscus knee tear lately. Clawing my way back. I'm trying to get my pop ups back. I can't believe it's back to something usually so intrinsic. IM not giving up!!! Great job you've done.
Ps....Dally and Verner say hi!!!
Thanks Chad you got this!!
Wow, love your dedication!
Started surfing 50 years ago an eventually got burned out on the crowds and hype.
One day, 25yag while checking Pipeline on a windy side shore day, this guy came ripping by thru the lineup on a surfboard with a kite an that was it for me.
Now it’s a SUP an paddle or a shortboard an kite when the wind comes up.
At the end of the day it’s all good whatever water sports you choose.
As ya get older, as your demonstrating, just got to make adjustments to your lifestyle to stay stoked.
I’ll be 67 in October. Also in DR an often ride those same waves in the video afternoons when it gets windy.
Thats epic. Nicholas. I am going to learn kite and SUP for sure. It is very inspiring how so many people ride everything here, thank you for the inspiration!
62 years old. 5'5". 128 lbs. I surf a 27L 5'8" epoxy Driver. My first epoxy. Been surfing since I was 14. Saint Lucia is not a surf destination, but when we do get waves, they are epic. So lots of down time. Important to have a daily stretch and cardio routine. 20 minutes. But no exercise prepares you for padding more than padding. So sometimes I just go for a paddle in a flat ocean. Hoping that I have another 15 years in the water. But you are surfing well. Nice cutties.
You got this!! Need to get over to St Lucia, looks spectacular.
Bloody inspiring. 57 yr old Cottons guy here riding primarily a 5'10" Seaside 39L. It's perfect. Hopefully holds me til 70.
Way stoked!! 😁
Avoid drugs , alcohol and stay young . Im 53 and I date girls in their late twenties and thirties . Hot girls . Stay in shape and make sure you don't lose your hair . I can still surf like this and I when I look at my buddies who are like old couch potatoes , I thank God for this youthful body . This guy is an inspiration .
You are shredding mate. Very inspiring. Thanks for sharing. Flexibility is the key...stretching everyday is a must do and surfskate a real bonus. Kowabunga !!!
🎯💯
This is rad! I’m a vegetarian too. Grew up in Santa Cruz also. I’m only 33 but this inspires me to want to still be short boarding at age 60. Thanks for showing us what’s possible 🙏🏼 keep ripping ❤
Epic!! Thank you!
I’m 51. Last February I had a bad motorcycle accident and broke my scapula. I hope I can surf again one day.
On Your Wagon. I am landlocked, but 63 still able to surf decent size waves.
Yeah TR always inspiring! Hope to meet again soon.
Right on Idan 👊🏽💥
I'm a 62yr old grumpy grom. Still working a full time job, because 😢of cost of living on maui. Born and raised here can't think of going any where else. Quit smoking, drinking, work gravyard shifts. So I can surf the mornings. Do all what you doing. Yoga, eat healthy, shortboard, longboard, sup when surf flat. Trying to live the surfers dream. Surfing keeps me young. Need to work on the grumpy part, because of the crowds.
Love your ride everything approach 💯 I want to learn SUP after shooting with Zane 🤯
From one TR to another, you go brother! I'm 68 and get in the water every chance I get. 45 years in the construction trade has taken a toll on the bod but I still have moments of brilliance that keep me stoked for more.
Yeah TR 🔥 Keep that fire burning
nice style , I'm 60 and riding a 5'6" retro fish by another south bay shaper Pat Reardon. Been surfing since 9. Find the hardest thing for me is a good clean pop up. Thanks for the inspiration !
I feel you. I have a few mantras I say to myself when paddling into waves. One is "crisp takeoff". I repeat that over and over as the wave approaches as it seems if I can get a clean pop up, the rest takes care of itself. When it doesn't my next mantra is "form".
@@RealSurfStories I’ll try that! Thanks
Thanks for your video
Those waves are easy, smooth and ripable👍🏻👍🏻
Yewww🤙 thanks for the insight I'm 52 and still surfing the waves I grew up surfing on the South Coast of NSW Australia with my brother who is 49. We are both riding shortboards and plan to surf into old age thanks mate.
Yeah Alan!! That's epic mate. I need to get back over there. Keep the stoke alive!
GOTTA JUMP ON THIS GOOD STUFF! I am stoked on this vid... thanks for sharing. I am 61. Workout, surf, or run everyday 365days a year... NON negotiable!! All to stay in the water and perform as long as humanly possible. My 60's are about getting better, not older. Nutrition at our age is paramount!!! Keep the stoke alive!!
💯🎯
Yeah TR !! Ripping and always steezy!! inspiring! thanks for sharing the stoke!!!
Yeah Ian!! Appreciate you brother 🙏🏽
yeew keep it up big inspiration!
I'm 69 and just started surfing again after 20 years layoff raising 7 children.. Simeulue Island Indonesia
Cantik cantik!
So rad ripping Tony!
Thanks so much Corey! 🙌
Great vid. Mate. 48 here and my everyday board is 5;10 mashup by fire wire. Love it and will ride shortboads into 70s or 80s i feel.
Old man still ripping!! Very few can claim that 💪and those waves look super fun! ❤🙏Much love and respect Japan

whats your height and weight? 55 and I still feel comfortable on 5'10" 30L shortboard.... not sure if I want to keep it going though...
I'm 5'9' 155 lbs, board volume 25 liters. I ride a 4'8" with the same volume. My other go to's are a 7'1 single fin and a 9'6" log.
Love it! ;-)
I was going to say when you said it wasn't the winter season I knew you weren't dealing with Hawaii

So stoked for u brother fu$&ing killing it
That's what I'm talking about! Question Sir: Could you give some info about expenses in general or detailed, specially when it comes to housing, please? Im 62 in great shape and looking for alternatives to surf all year round.. presently in Argentina cause of my mom, but seriously thinking on how to follow your steps.. Enjoy it bud and Congrats to you!
Living in the third world is very inexpensive especially if you cook your own food and live amongst the locals. M Go to a local friend's house. Ask him if there's anything similar available in the area.
@@RealSurfStories Thanks bud!
It’s definitely the Spyder board haha
Agree!
What supplements do you consume, besides just fundamental food?
All food based. Essential fatty acids, omegas very important to process plant based protein.
Wow, you rip bro 🎉 and very nice style
Thank you Fabrice.
You Fricken Rule man!
🙏🏽
Um atleta sadio aos 60 anos de idade pode ser melhor do que muitos com a metade da idade...eu sou um exemplo disso 😊
Obrigado irmao 🙏🏽
53 and still going here in Brazil
Keep going irmao!!
Sea urchin got me good in the DR 😢
Man there's so many! Can't put your feet down unless you see there aren't any.
Yeah older grom stoke 🤙🏾. I gotta have alcohol 🍷 🍺 on occasion though. Moderation and it’s all good
I feel you. I just stopped 7 years ago. Used to tell myself the same thing.
No need to eat salad all day long, doing yoga at dawn and not drinking any wine or alcohol to surf at 60. This is fortunate because I drink (reasonably) and eat anything i want and surf as much as i can.
Many can surf til 80 and beyond eating and drinking whatever they want. The human body is amazing.
What this video is about however is surfing performance level. No doubt my results are due to zero alcohol or animal products in my body combined with yoga at dawn and throughout the day.
@@RealSurfStories it that pleases you to believe it, i see no harm. However i am personally at the best level of my life and i eat meat with a balanced diet including beer or wine whenever i want and for sure no yoga as for me this is full bulshit.
Everybody has his recipe.
@@christopheroch9352 Results speak louder than words. Post the link of you surfing.
@@RealSurfStories hey dude this is not competition. I have nothing to prove and i have no time nor ressource to spend on filming myself. I simply, when i have time, prefer to surf.
But if you want to see me surf and film. I will be happy to welcome you in France. That will becthe occasion to have a good barbecue steak and a beer.
Bros...try sprints during flat spells. Is good for the paddle fitness. Peace .
Was this an element school learning program
Yes, never ending!
Tr just say your 60y I just saw video storie I just turned 65 MarcRipley niu 4:27 s
Bless you brother, miss you! We need to connect!!
Keep stretching boys
💯 Vinyasa Flow
Hi TR
I live just a bit South, samana peninsula
It's time to shine,I agree
I will come up to meet you just after this easter if you let me know where to meet
You are stoked on surfin and I ve had the same opportunity in my life
Seria bueno conocerte, estamos demasiado cerca
Yes bro!! Playa Colorado Nica!!!
The video work is excellent but I would be careful with the diet. Keep an eye on your blood sugar levels and how often you need to eat.
This video is about my surfing, and how I attain my level at my age...not my video work. Blood sugar? The nutrients and antioxidants the food I eat provide and protect cells from oxidative damage and inflammation which regulates blood sugar, reduces the risk of developing many chronic diseases, including diabetes as well as promote visceral fat, which improves insulin sensitivity and is rich in soluble fiber which slows glucose absorption and are high in micronutrients especially magnesium, which promotes improved glucose metabolism. I consume complex carbohydrate foods high in fiber and protein, not simple carbohydrates, which keeps my body full longer and regulate blood sugar spikes. I dont eat until a light lunch and have a big early dinner. A variety of whole foods properly combined ensures not only ensures a broader range of nutrients, but also a lower glycemic index and glycemic load. But the true test are the physical results. They speak for themselves.
I’m watching this eating a pot noodle 😂
Bon appetite!
No crowd and easy waves, not difficult.
I watched until the point of no alcohol...lol
Deal breaker 🤣
Many guys surfing into 60 plus. Like choke brah.
Yes and 70, 80 and beyond 🙌
Did I see some cheese? Animal product.
Definitely not. It's butternut squash.
I don’t know, I’m 54 and surf light years faster than this dude. I drink to the occasion suits and eat meat; weight in close to 190lbs Bavarian strength. Not sure about that veagan diet.
Post the link
I do great with meat and beer at age 56. A little wine. Rarely a bit of liquor. I'll for optimising. Just plants isn't healthy for me,…. and I'm experienced in depth since my teens committing to the raw-emphasis vegan life,… but I had to get out of that for my body's health.
Tr hows da eye i took u to hospital wahiawa eye clinicĺ dr corboy
It's good, about 90%! thank you! That was a nuts day
No meat, no booze, not a man.
🤣 Good luck with that.
Respect and mahalos for the inspiration. Staying out there as much as possible is the best thing. Great for mental health as well as fitness. Alohas and enjoy
Exacto 🎯
You are ripping!! i wish i can surf that well when i arrive at 60 🦾🔥
Well done, I’m 66 on Sunday still surf every day there are waves if not paddle board and swimming for three km a day. I eat chocolate and pasta and meat and fish and p…y . Still have wine and good whisky or Armagnac or limoncello. But can’t sing for a cr.p. Never smoked and never had it up me b.m. Admit this guy short boards better than I do. But tomorrow I’m surfing with an ex mavericks champion. Ohhh and my farts are still loud.
TR is so talented he can surf and film himself at the same time ! What’s his secret ?!
Lol. My daughter filmed it 😁
Shouldnt u be competing in some kinda of masters events w that kinda skillz?
Thanks king! Yes, I compete in every one I can!!
@@RealSurfStories just for the record listening again at 4am.. 45 minutes just flew by!.. so good.. you get your f n 🌹 s kid.. 👏 👏 👏
@RealSurfStories don't think I didn't notice that strobeck effect in your work... I think it had todo w you getting the personality in-between trys.. trying to see in their mind
@@timmckenney9012 The face to feet angle I was doing from day one but only used it very sparingly in the editing room. My videos had an inside looking around involved vibe as opposed to a voyueristic view.
@@RealSurfStories... do me a favor.. get one good floater for me.. my favorite surf trick to watch..
