Gosh, I didn't know Harold Iggy was still kicking, or that he even shaped short boards. I remember him from surfing Canoes, Waikiki in the '60s. We had a lot of First Break days back then .. very seldom does it ever break now .. although I think they had one big swell this summer.

Tevake, I found that old photo of Brian Kennelly (Keala's Dad) 1967, San Diego (actually this is during a surf contest, his team against our team)
 Other grainy photos of old photos: Around 1978, a water shot I took of a full blooded Hawaiian, surfing obscure Keanae break on East Maui:  Another shot of Keanae, my 6'7" friend Tim in the tube, taken by his girlfriend  A random shot of Bells Beach, on one of my many business trips in the area .. I got it like this all the time. Uncrowded and 4-6'.  A cove near Raglan NZ, around 1980 .. only one guy out ..  A shot of Pavones, CR from our neighbor's back porch, around 1987. This break was unbelievable .. sometimes a full kilometer ride .. Too crowded now.

Just saw Chasing Mavericks. Excellent film about Jay Moriarty. I don't even surf and after watching I want to take it up.

Great vintage shots Geary! I feel so lucky to have been deep into surfing at the time they show. You seem to have been in the right place in the right time all around the world yourself.
Brian K. has gone full circle in surfing and is now back to styling on the long board ( looking a lot like your pic) and SUP. He and some other old timers Like Billy Hamilton, Jeff Hackman and others I'm sure you would remember and have probably surfed with, are still a presents from the point at the bay. Cheers Richard |

WOW Geary - I think I hate you - you lucky bastard.
Was happy with the miserable little chest high stuff we had here today - until now.... Actually was fun - take what we get. But that shot of Pavones - looks like one of those surf paintings of Paradise.

I feel blessed to have gotten all those spots at the right time (or I should say, end of the good times). They're all too crowded now (except Bells).
.. still waiting to hear the name of that left, Baz .. Last edited by Geary; 10-12-2013 at 04:26 PM.. |
