It’s been a while…perhaps too long…since we posted anything about surfing here, and I couldn’t pass up posting about
this interview with surfing legend Gerry
Lopez in this month’s Surfer Magazine. Lopez has retired to (of all places) the hills outside of Bend, Oregon, but the
story finds the Duke of Curl still savoring good waves and keeping busy designing surf boards. As someone who grew up
around the beaches of So Cal, I was pleased to find Lopez still kicking about, and reading about his early exploits as
one of the Pipeline Pioneers brought back some good memories.
