6'8 Rick Jacko Alloy Joy, it has a steel stringer & survived a 2 year trek from Margaret River to the Great Ocean Road. I've had it since 1993 & surfed it as recently as low tide Balangan 2008, when it was still my backup board

Almost identical to a mate of mines! I surfed it at Lefties last year

I am restoring this beauty as we speak - just need to do a final sand and polish

Its 6'6" in length - hard to tell the thickness but probably 2 7/8. Can not recall the width.

It terms of colours - I thought I would colour the hot coat to even it out all nicely. But I had a few problems with the mix - it looked all good in the mixing jar but as I started to put it on I realised that it was not going to work as well as intended. Its left it a little worse for wear. I will try and fix it but I think I will now have a board that looks like it was glassed while the laminator was doing mushrooms

Actually i have a 1966 soft cover book in A1 cond.How to surf.All the pictures/demonstrations are done by legend Mike Doyle,will have to find it and post.

Here's the rest of those pics for you Godfather Asea ..... geez life is hard being the presidential secretary of Greenroom state

Back on topic surfing memorabilia This fin chop is all I have to remember a great surf with three of my best mates. Didn't even know I had it. I had a black rashie on got out of the surf and headed to the pub got into my 2nd beer when one of the boys said hey weiry you brushed your back against something. took the shirt off and said FMD.

I have also been collecting a variety of surf waxes over the years - one day I will work out how to display them - thinking of a long coffee table with them all arranged underneath. Still in the design / thought stage. It will probably end in my office as opposed to the lounge room

If you come across any good ones please feel free to snap them up for me and post them - I will pay for them.

I picked up these on the Goldie last week. I have a couple of classic breast shaped ones - my favs Will post a pic when I get a chance.





This idea - but a much nicer table !!!!!
