Couple more.....my Vega wagon with two sisters who hung with us and one of the more popular shops - MCC's. The MCC stood for the owner's...Kem McNair, Billy Chapin, and David Coffee. All 3 are still surfing and have played in a rock and roll band since these times. They still play at our Surfari Club parties and such. Kem is an amazing artist and photographer as well and at one time was the East Coast surfing champion.

That red board was a Jim Turner, I believe - or a Natural Art....

More of me.....on a trip to Eleuthera, with my friend Tom "Curless Mayfield" May and his 16' cat, and on the beach after a surf.

That white board was an MCG.....that's when Billy "Doc" Geiger took the place of Billy Chapin at MCC's and it became MCG's....:D Doc later re-located to PR and has never been heard of since.....

Pretty cool "Mak", Geary!

The clear surfboard is a project by Angus Grace called Clear Surf Innovations.

This is the traction material
on the deck.

This is a video....not much surfing but that's all I could find:

Would still be if the photo was flipped. But the lifeguard stand does read backwards. So, what's up with all the goofy foots?

They practise both ways - the photo was taken when they were practising goofy foot....these kids are going to be awesome at switching stance! :D
