50's term for a greaser, someone who hung out at the beach, but definitely not a surfer. Hodads were into cars, music and were a type of counterculture style. These were NOT posers, as some of the other definitions had stated...Surfer's and Hodad's would be completely separate groups, that often clashed with each other.
in the beach communities in the 50's one was either a hodad or a surfer. Hodad's wore a very specific style of clothing.....black shoes, jeans, and a t-shirt (preferably white). They were NOT posers, and wouldn't be caught dead hangin' with a surfer. aka...low riders

A Hodad is an older surfer, who most often rides a longboard and is able to get onto waves before the shortboards, but because the hodad is riding a longboard, he is unable to shred the vave the way a shortboarder would be able to do. The opposite of a gremmie, a younger surfer that rides a short board but who drops in on you everytime.
In the movie "Ride the Wild Surf" the song "Secret Surf Spot":
"My secret surf spot, where nobody knows
The Gremmies and the Hodads never go"
"My secret surf spot, where nobody knows
The Gremmies and the Hodads never go"

"Hey, Mary-Lou, that there show you's watchin' is pretty Hodad!
"C'mon, Howard, don't do that- its so Hodad."
"I don't know about you, Bobby, but that couch is Hodad."
"Latisha built a wooden deck per her above ground pool, but it turned out to be quite Hodad."

A non-surfer.
While riding the best wave of the day, I noticed a hodad on the beach chatting up the bikini I had my eye on.
