Stories from a long past era that will transport you back to a simpler time. This is not just a collection of surf stories, but a candid and true account of events of decades past. Events and adventures no longer possible, due to the over population of the planet. Read excerpts from Gene's early years through to the present. Long before 'Gidget went Hawaiian"in the Movies, introducing surfing to the masses, in Santa Cruz California, there already existed a dedicated vanguard of intrepid Ocean Lovers gathering on Cowells Beach.
One of the first to ride the Foam Cored Surfboards, Gene's exciting, and often wild, youth relived with you on these pages. One of surfing legends, Gene recounts his experiences in Hawaii and Australia that will shock you and get you laughing. This modern classic should not be missed!
Those were the days...
