Richie Collins is a former professional surfer and surfboard shaper from Newport Beach, California. He built his reputation in the late 1980s, winning the 1988 O'Neill Coldwater Classic at Santa Cruz and the 1989 US Open of Surfing at Huntington Beach, and he finished both 1989 and 1990 rated number eight in the world. Surfing and shaping run through his family: his father is the shaper Lance Collins, and his daughter Meah Collins is a highly regarded surfer. He attended Newport Harbor High School, and fellow surfer Dave Parmenter gave him the nickname Skeletor.
