Kiwi still setting a rail.....

Some of you knew the Kiwi when he lived here. Here he is in the above pic pulling a line at Uluwatu in 1979 and below he's back there some 30 years later none the worse for wear after a lifetime chasing waves.


Just for your stoke level he is riding a 6'7"X18.5X2.25 after giving up his beloved longboards. Bloody oath, who woulda thunk it?

Remember when he brought his "work" with him and had them sitting on the shore waiting for him?

"Ed The Waxer"... classic story. Chain smoking, attached to a Pepsi bottle occasionally getting out of the Subarau to take a leak(in public) and then back into the Subie.

All the while Kiwi is surfing away and when he gets in promising Ed a corn dog lunch if he behaves himself!

LMAO

Glad to see he's alive and well and all. I wondered where he got to.
