BIO
Rusty Miller is a former USA Surfing Champion, (1965), a native southern Californian, born in La Jolla. Started surfing in Encinitas in 1953. In the early 60s he travelled each December to the north shore of Oahu where he earned a good reputation riding the big waves at Sunset Beach, Waimea and Pipeline. In the mid sixties he moved to Hanalei on the island of Kauai where he worked and surfed with Joey Cabell.
In the early 70s he moved to Byron Bay. During the Aquarius Festival in 1972 he published the regions first alternative free newspaper, the Byron Express, and worked also for the new fledgling Tracks magazine with John Witzig, Albert Falzon and David Elfick.
A trip to Bali later that year featured him in the first surfing filmed at the now renowned Ulu Watu, Morning of the Earth. This production introduced Australians and then the international surfing world to the magic of Indonesian quality waves.
