Hi Herb, here’s a shot from when I was about 14 in LA. The photographer has a cool website of his stuff from the 70s, all Venice.
Freaked me out trying to re-find the original site. All these pictures are spread out all over the www. Kind of a weird feeling!
i like…put up more…if you can…and thank you in advance !

The Venicepix site- the photographer’s site- is chock full of priceless stuff from then/there. I have the prints he gave me back then, anything else would be lifting it off his site, which I don’t feel entitled to. Check out the link, you’ll love it.
I’m out of the poker game- I have other stuff but it’s well buried in the vault. Sure love YOUR images and your energy to share though!!! You got to ride places I saw in the magazine- I’m in awe…
Fins,
No, it’s San O,Ca. …
A tight group of us use to surf the temporary pier in front of… the now de-functed nuke power plant…we called it,“the nuke bowl”.
after the surf we hit the pipes,just up the hill from the break…a double session.

Thanks, Herb. I still ride as much as I can, but only on hills.
yup age has it’s way…i don’t like the crowds at the skateparks but still enjoy a backyard pool from time to time.
thanks for posting your collection.

Cool photo, Herb! I bet there is a good story behind that photo. Maybe you tell it to me someday. Mike
