It's the first time i've seen that pic blown up. It's from the late seventys. Can't remember what board that was. I'll say a Hot Stuff Rabbit model. 6'2" 19.5 2.5 squash tail single fin. Skinny D
In the 80's Dave was surfing the little bowls on the North Side of HB Pier at low tide on a NZ swell. He was hitting the lip four ways - going left goofy foot, going left regular foot, going right goofy and going right regular . . . OK, maybe it was the seventies . . . but ripping!
I agree with Drew, every word. The single fin Seventies were my time. The rails were the other two fins. What a great period to surf. Now's pretty good too!
Thanks Maggie. You did a great job. IOU big time.
