I was trying to get in touch with Steve Gendel. He used to surf Pupukea on the North Shore with Paul Swanson. If you’d rather pm any information is much appreciated,

Try Ray Beatty out of Haleiwa harbour - he captains a cat.

Was there - would know!

Midget,

 

Thanks. I believe you know Gordon Simpson. I have been doing an interview with him. Were you present when he rode Waimea on his bellyboard?

Yes!

Midget,

Besides Bruce Brown who I am trying to contact, do you know if anyone took a photo of Gordon's bellyboard or him riding the wave? Someone has checked Surfing World issues 1 & 2 and there is a photo of Gordon riding standup before his board broke but no photo of his Waimea ride. I am looking for photos of any accounts of the wave to add to the inetrview.

regards

Bob
