Samberg recalls the sketch, which saw Martin play an out-of-touch older surfer who’s ejected from a group of younger surfers, playing flawlessly early in the creative process. “It was making us laugh so hard when we were writing it,” he said. “We were like, ‘This is the best thing ever.
Taccone suggested that the physical staging of the sketch may have caused some of the issues. “It was like the blocking was wrong,” he said. “But the show is like, if you don't fix it right then, then that's your blocking and you're f---ed, and that's what it felt like was happening.”Samberg also noted that the humor of the sketch might have been lost in translating it to the stage.
Taccone agreed. “As morale plummeted in the success of the sketch, Steve fought so f---ing hard,” he said. “And I actually remember like in between dress and air going in to give him last notes on it very disheartened, and just being like, ‘I wish we had more time’ and he was like, ‘I wish we did too. It's so good, and it's not gonna be good.’”
Meyers, who performed a small part in the sketch, said that he felt guilty about the sketch’s lack of success. “I felt like I was aiding and abetting a crime against a comedy legend,” he said. “We were all in our cool ass wet suits and this legend was in a dumbass 1920 swimsuit. He was the only guy who was even supposed to get a laugh in it you know what I mean? None of us had lines to get laughs.
