  • Rob nailed the blind basketball shot on the first take... but Taylor didn't hit record. Took him another couple tries to do it again.
    The release of FOCUS (1994) marks a next evolution in the Momentum era, with a bit more lifestyle, skits and stunts added to the high-octane surf action. You can also see the evolution in the surfing as the surfers gain confidence on the world stage.

    Wen I was 12 I watched this and studied focus for 4 yrs and it helped me out surf all of my freinds .once before school ,twice before bed . I would do a lay back and instantly think that was similar to Taylor Knox layback in focus . √ .rad times rock on these clips !

    It brought back really good memory. Thanks Taylor and the whole crew from Momentum Generation. I used to have them all in video tapes.

    So surreal to see Rob surf so high performance, so used to his mellow, old school style these days.

      That was back in 94 too. Pretty impressive and progressive for the times.

    This is the style of surfing I like (happens to be the style I grew up with coincidence?) love the video format too, like an old skate video . Man these clips are so hot right now

      Me too. Long before everyone wax their board all the way to the nose and stands like a stink bug pooping.

    So much nostalgia. I probably watched FOCUS as a teenager more than my next top 5 watched movies (Surf, Major Motion Picture) combined.
    Did anyone else think they heard "licking your balls" instead of "nuclear wars" in the song? It wasnt till Google years later could I clear that up!🤣

      Rob also has his foundation too. He supplies Cardiff with rubbish bins on the beach. He also puts drinking water purification systems in the schools in the Encinitas School District and supplied reusable water bottles for the students to use. He's more than a great surfer folks :)

    You didn’t need airs to be one of the best during that time, although many did. Still style is everything !!!

    Id put that surfing up against any current pro. Machado was and is one bad shredda!

  • @powercarve125

    What size boards did he have here? Approximately. I wanna surf with those long thin narrow boards like they did in the 90s it looks way more agressive and more rail surfing

    Rob hasn’t lost a step. Looks like he’s even added a few moves to his bag of tricks that he wasn’t doing back in the day.
