Bruce "Snake" Gabrielson and Friends, Surf EXPO 2014

Bruce "Snake" Gabrielson and Friends
Surf EXPO
Orlando, FL January

The NSSIA had a booth at Surf EXPO this year and I spent most of my time at it. Saw a number of friends that I hadn't seen in awhile plus had a chance to talk few surf icons that don't attend these events often. I didn't get pictures during the East Coast Hall of Fame inductions as my camera batteries were running low but I did sit at the table with friends Barry hahn, Paul Stroh and Pete Smith. The 50th anniversary Endless Summer reunion was fantastic. I attended the first showing of the movie in Huntington Beach in 1964, the 40th anniversary renuinm I think in Costa Mesa, and now this one. In all I never had a chance to really meet Bruce Brown. I was an honor.
