Brian never surfed - he was not physically gifted and had more of a Baby Huey body. His brother Dennis and Mike Love were surfers.

Poor Brian had so many psych issues that were made worse with drugs.

I saw a documentary about him, it seems for most of the 70s / 80s a grifter quack doctor attached himself to Wilson and really messed him up with general quackery. Perhaps intentionally to keep the gravy train rolling, I don't know. Anyway, once they pried him loose from that guy, Wilson improved enough to work again.

I believe Mike Love is a cousin of Brian, Carl, and
Dennis Wilson. One of my HS classmates was a sound tech
roadie for the Beach Boys.
