“I started surfing in the north east away from the fashion restrictions and heavy influence of the main stream surf industry. there was a real pioneer spirit, exploring and experimenting. We were completely free to build what we felt like. There was nobody telling us what was right or wrong. If we didn’t understand something, we built it, and surfed it.”
