North Shore line up



The photograph above dove tails nicely with the previous post, for it features a pretty impressive line up of surfers. Taken during the '85'86 winter season on the North Shore, just a couple of years after The Performers, the boards and the clothes are very much of that era. It was all about bright and loud graphics and bold colours.   I am able to identify pretty much all of the guys in the shot, many of which by the sponsors logos!  Sadly though, there are faces there that are no longer with us; including Mark Foo and Buttons there right in the fore ground, who died late last year.
