His words: “My objective is to make someone happy in the water.”

May 12, 2012Terry made a couple of boards for me the last few years. I’ll always treasure watching him shape these boards in his garage and enjoying his company. He had kind and gentle soul.

May 15, 2012First time I met Terry was at one of the first AB3’s in Oceanside. It was hard to get any real “facetime” with him that day. There was a steady stream of folks wanting to talk with him. At one point I just stood back a ways and watched him, very patiently and with much sincerity, explain board design to a young grom.
He was the real ting.
