I grew up surfing Floreat, City Beach and Scarborough in the early 70's along with regular trips down south with my old man and his mates. So I am old enough to remember when local Perth breaks were uncrowded, baking spuds on a fire on the groynes before a pre-dawn surf, secret spots down south were known to only a select few and surfers respected wave etiquette. Now a bit older I am still surfing and enjoying passing on what I have learnt to my daughter (as well as patching her dings!)
