Then seeing the surf tourism industry booming he jumped ship: Just intime for the Pandemic, proving to himselfonce again, you just can't see into the future Somewhere in the last ten years while he was doing his best to sell surfboards for Euroglass to the biggest mover of fibreglass in Europe, Boardshop.

Fixed. Finless. Boardless. Aimless. The full circle. And we still are talking this: We stopped working together: But we never stopping talking surf together.

Episode 168 - We Are Joined By Greatness - Margo Is On The Insiders.
A privilege and a pleasure. We sat down to chat with Margo, Margs, Margerine, Brenden.
Putting our stoke to one side, this chat was everything we wished for and more. Maybe the best episode of The Insiders to date!
Darren's take on his earlier memories of Margo are: I first heard talk of Margo around ’91 at a Byron Bay Boardriders barbecue — before the name was really a name. Everyone was saying he’d progressed to something they’d never seen before. It felt like a myth had formed before most of us had even seen him surf.
A few months later at the Queensland titles in Coolum, I saw it. A frontside re-entry carve in the face — something I’d never seen before, and still not sure I’ve seen since.
