Hello,
I’m wanting to update my website on Australian & NZ bellyboarding. I’m looking for board or surfing photos and am hoping to make contact with collectors or anyone with an interest in New Zealand surfing history. Feel free to PM or e-mail bgreen @ dyson.brisnet.org.au (you need to remove the spaces).
I’m familiar with the on-line library resources and have met with some guys who rode paipos in the 60s - including Tony Butt, Peter White and the late Dave Jackman.
Can anyone tell me if the Mt Manganuii museum is still in operation and whether it has pre 1950s boards?
Any assistance is appreciated.
Bob
