Rob Machado

Robert Edward Machado (born 16 October 1973) is an Australian born American professional surfer. He competed on the World Surf League Championship Tour from 1993 to 2001, and since then has been a professional free surfer. He is known for a casual, laid-back style both in and out of the water, and his fluid surfing, which earned him the nickname "Mr. Smoothy", has made him one of the best-known goofy-foot surfers in the world today. This entry rests on the lead section of his English Wikipedia article, which gives his birth date, his birthplace and nationality, the years of his tour career, his nickname and his stance.
