...really cool article in the latest Surfer's Journal about a family that created a lumber mill on the coast of Washington state... and the BOARDS they made out of solid cedar and rode there... mainly prone... A HUNDRED YEARS AGO! Pretty cool, these folks... members of the Emerson and Dole families with Hawaiian connections. There are great old photos of the boards; they look real interesting, pretty narrow, and about as big as shortboards. I love this kind of rustic, vintage surfing history.

Good article! and there's another one that talks about paipos, don't have the mag with me now... but two articles about paipos in one surf mag, that's got to be a record. Surfers Journal is the only surf magazine I read.

I agree - Surfers Path is worthy as well.

Yeah! I can't even believe that I forgot to even mention the other article a few pages into the magazine. The article essentially places cutting-edge paipo riding as precursor to the shortboard revolution. That's pretty cool stuff.

Which issue of Surfer's Journal is this? I stop subscribing last year and just receive Surfers Path these days.

Thanks for the tip, tumak. I'll attempt to locate a copy of the mag and perhaps the site of the mill, as well.

I just saw the TSJ yesterday in a bookstore...all very interesting although I didn't have time to read the Washington article. The other one is a 2 pager by Reno Abelleria (sp?) and that one has a great photo of him somewhere with a short surfboard...you'll know when you see it...tres avant garde...

I learned to surf at Pt. Grenville in the early sixties. A group of us lived on the beach there, for months at a time. I still surf there on occassion, as does George. The waves are long , but slow. I often ride a mat, given the stealth factor involved in gaining access. Which is fine with me, as it is a very unique place.
