Paging Ray Spitzer

Howzit Ray? was nice to meet you on the 4th at trail 5, finally putting a face w/a name. shoot me a pm and i will get you those dimensions…ned

You mean Ray “Stingray” Meek or Herb Spitzer? Both regulars here…but pretty sure they’re not related :wink:

i don’t know about “stingray”, but yes, ray IS the bruddah (blood) of herb…i told him i’d post here to exchange some dimensions on a board i have that he showed some interest…okay, where are you ray?

Hey Namotuman

hows trail 5 doin these days still breakin good?. I havent been there in over a year. I may have seen you there just didnt know ya (still dont,LOL) I would go there with Fred (lumpy) and the Sharkman (Chris Uptan) and his two boys, and of course all the usual suspects.

Oh ya… Ray mows my aunt’s yard up in L.B… I met him once he’s a good guy

Mow’s yards and surfs,livin life on his own terms, got to respect that.

I’ve met Herb a few times also… Fred and me would see him at the riv in S.B.

antway when I get back from Hawaii in a few weeks I’ll probly get back down to #5

Later

Herb – tell us about Ray and the twin fin, please

Okay E,

What is it specifically do you want to here ?

On a broader range…he rips the Sheet out of the fish designs I have built him.

I have know idea what boards he took to The Sano camp grounds with him ??? He was down there for a week,and called me to come join him ,but family,bla,bla,bla…I never made it down that way.Would have loved to,but I surfed a couple days up here in No.O.C. beaches,for some short sessions.Got some Okay waves.Herb

…he rips the Sheet out of the fish designs I have built him.

More…

Okay here’s a ,“FISH OUT OF WATER” story.

Ray was surfing the 2001 surfline contest…or was that the 2000 ?..one of those rigged events…anywho…While Raaaaayge was on the beach waiting for results of his heat…two guys approached his Fish I built for him in the latter 90s and started to handle it.One of the two suspects took out a measuring tape…Ray Asked them what they though they were doing…Caught in the act…they just stammered and studdered…Ray went up, and took his board away from them and told them to get there own dimentions/ templates.

Can you guess who the two were ?

I’ll give up one of them…

…Roger Hines of Country Surfboards fame.

Roger,at the time, was shaping for a famous, local boardbuilder…

…The other was a well known local shaper who was, shaping for a famous local surfboard mfg/shaper. Herb

Herb Spitzer is also a Fire Chief…

Same name different person.

…Poor soul ,The strain was more than he could bare…

EP,AND OTHERS…THIS IS THE BOARD IN QUESTION.

Howzit KSurf,

Hey Stringray,

Trail 5 at sano(any trail really) would be a great place to hold a Swaylocks event.
