Jimi and Friends




In 1994 my airbrusher Dad, Peter St Pierre collaborated with surfer Rob Machado, shaper Al Merrick, photographer Mike Balzar and the ghost of Jimi Hendrix to create an image which became a cover of Surfing Magazine. I was flipping through some back issues the other day and found this little postage stamp sized photo in another issue of Surfing where they identified my Dad Peter as "Paul". So, way to go "Paul"!

Gary Hanel Twin Keel Fish








Out of all the Fishes in the world I think the GH twin is my favorite. The crisp foiled modern rails, the nose template, the tail template, the single foiled Lowboy fin template. It's just chock full of goodness.

Multifin surfboards are here to stay

click image for large view
A mysterious gent named Red Bear sent me this Sunset Surfboards ad from 1983 that ran in Breakout Magazine. Note that Moonlight's address is the same but with a zip code change. Listed is a different from now phone number from when the 619 prefix covered north San Diego county.
I like that the tri-fin has a center box and that the quad has four boxes, most likely the Freestyle fin system. Love the outlines on those boards and of course, the flashy airbrushes.

These blue tinted bamboo fins by 101 Fin Co. are pretty snazzy.
