It's the 60's, I doubt it's even a wetsuit, notice the spherical earings... ... ... I'll ask him though

He'd have to be stoked with that

I wonder if my lil sis still has the b&w piccy she took of me with long hair doing a bottom turn on a head n 1/2 wave 26 years ago. Havta ask her tomorrow

Hi Mr rooMac.

I think your spot on for the date. Late 60's or the early 70's. I remember some really early wetsuits coming out that looked a bit like that one, (if it is a wetsuit). The board looks like my first board, that I got in 1970, about 6'10 round tail, flat rocker with a bit of nose lift. Ahh the memories. I was in black and white then as well!!

I need to pop down and day thanks to him, he dropped 3 dozen fresh oysters at my parents place for our Xmas shindig.

Yes, he owns an oyster farm, good relative to have

Not actually surfing, but with my EH van and Peter Clarke I bought from LaFish around '72

Great old pic,love the EH panno & the old Peter Clarke,my second board was a Peter Clarke,still got a 60s one ,very cool!..

Now..I love that RR

Couple of blokes in town collect EH sedans great cars . One gets used as a surf car carries around a couple of SUPs on top . do beleive he is off down the east coast in it at the moment with his boards surfing and camping .

About 20 years back had a chance to buy an old EH with very low kms ( literally driven to the pub and back on a Friday night by the old fella ) , in as new condition , couldn't beleive it when the old blokes family sold it out from under me . Haven't looked at an EH since till I saw the one in town here .havent seen too many of the panel vans must be pretty rare these days .

is that Park beach river rider .

Would be interesting to see the same shot in 40 years . With global warming park beach could be the new Sunshine Coast
