interesting character, this one : http://www.stabmag.com/individuals/sunny-garcia.php
Just to make things clear, I didn’t call Sunny an atheist, read my original reply on assumptions than can help one avoid violence, supposed to be funny and sarcastic and teach something…
My parrot and my pitbull are atheists though…
... My parrot and my pitbull are atheists though. Wow!..That's wierd? My dog thinks he's GOD.....oh wait he's just dyslectic. My mistake.
Hey if someone shoots a board at me..and it hit's me, then it's game on. I revet back to my younger foolish days. I view a fiberglass spear wrapped in 4 oz, and hardened with epoxy as a direct attempt at someone trying to take me out.
Whoa, Resinhead… not at all a funny pun but still kinda funny, I mean that is what popped into my head as I have had a board shot at my head. Missed though. Heads up!
but are you also a gang member?
My pit bull isn’t an atheist. He thinks I’m God. Neither of us are gang bangers. If somebody slapped my kid,both of which are teenagers, I would put them in the hospital. It’s simple. I don’t slap other people’s kids. They don’t slap mine. I don’t slap my kids, either. No kid slapping allowed. I don’t like kid slapping. Especially teenagers. Even when I feel like slapping a teenager around. Sounds like the guy got what he deserved. Maybe not enough. I don’t know what’s up with assaulting a photographer. Mike
Ha ha…no I guess not.
Howzit Tony,After reading the story and the guy went at Flores then he got what he should have and Sunny may have gone a little overboard but it was his son and when it comes to Family I don't know anybody who wouldn't have done the same. If Sunny had wanted to really hurt the guy he would have, but it seems he got some cracks and is lucky that was all since I have seen some really bad beat downs in Hawaii. There was a time when Hanalei after dark was like Dodge City with no sheriff and things were scary some times. I think everyone reading this thread should take a minute and think what they would do if the same thing happened to their son or daughter. Are you going to just sit there and watch your kid get some slaps or step in and give the guy some of what he was dishing out. I would have done the same thing that Sunny did since I sure would want my son to know his dad would be there for him when he needed me.Aloha,Kokua
well I just read 5 pages of
surfing literature.
My life view has been
irrevocably changed.
Culture is grown in a petri dish.
In this case the petri dish
is the historicly famous
fabulous burliegh heads
contest site. The video
attached to the other thread
revealed less than perfect surf.
I think It Is wonderfull
that competent surfers
can gather together
after traveling thousands of miles
and share in the joys and beauty
of surfing .The byproduct of this
fantasmagorical pursuit
is a little confrontation
between friendly guys learning
how to play well with others…
aint life grand?
…ambrose…
the stories around the fire ring sundays
used to be about the fights
at the Y Dances on saturday nights.
Now they happen right there at the contests!
Maybe there should be a ring on the beach
for settling minor disputes,with 16 oz. gloves
The twentieth century was so backward
this 21st century is sooo cool.
What about a mug shot
of this dropin shoot yer board
guy/kid?If he’s not gonna be surfin burligh
mebe we could watch out for him elsewhere
before he goes PRO.

Just read the above link. Sunny is a chump. His kid was not even fighting, he was just standing there watching Flores fight the guy. Sunnys kid was not fighting or in any danger when Sunny decided he needed to step in and take over the fight. Why? Because he thinks he’s some kind of bad ass…but obviously as the truth comes out it’s just as we expected…Sunny is just a DUMB ASS.
Looked like two handy welterweights to and froing, with a very healthy juniour [who I'm glad I don't have to feed] looking a little embarrassed. All in all, it's life. The Gold Coast is a very crowded surf area and as someone said earlier,"it's a wonder there's not more". H.
Harris,
Now that is solid inside info…Westerly Wind…an east coast surfers dream that wind, offshore and feathering corduroy…no doubt there are some very close correlations and metod in Drouyns madnes and new found name.
Me thinks many will never think of a westerly in the same light again now after hearing your informative insight …but as you have credited so rightly, a brilliant surfer, brilliant character and a sufing culyural jab in the ribs of conformity. Drouyn at Sunset in the seventies was an approach like no other, not saying the best, certainly not recognised as many of his contemporaries, but still a style and line that few could contmplate and did not go unoticed by the elite of that era
Imagine if sunny Sunny hit Windy, Bam right there, a movie script made in heaven.
Keep up the good oil H, get some low down on the kid and the Braziii aperture jockey, who was quick to get his 15 minutes of fame but now wants celebrity immunity, life support and diplomatic immunity. Prolly find out in ten years time he is living on GC worth a squillion from some victim compensation scheme and everyone will stalk visiting tough guys hoping to cop a bruise or two from falling over.
Rocky
yes I have done the investigative work for you sabi, the kid ranks as maybe a member of the Burliegh boardriders, so he's thinking he has a use for the welter weight muscles he has built, fuck where's my glasses?
, ok, in the car, I try really hard on the spelling, ok , get on with it, hey fuck you Rock, you owe me, we have questions to ask you, ok, where was I? Ok I have bothered to contact 2 people, the Brazilian split, as you would, the kid is a new member of the Burliegh boys, my mate , who is in Westerlies era and as , or close , as famous, has called there has only been 1 guy to take the Burliegh guys on in court and they have been doing it for decades, so every one wins or loses. Me I don't have a problem with Sunny, the North shore, Burliegh, any where on the planet, actually I have been taken in by the Burliegh Harris's, so I will be kind to everybody. As I said 1 minute after it happened , "good luck Sunny". I don't care what most of you think of me , Sunny, Rock head , Ambrose , Chip, Huie, and lets not forget Roy, it's not what you can do for sways, its what sways can do for you, yea , you know the rest, I will have a big rest soon, bla bla fucken bla, HARRIS,.lol, xxx
harris ,
You have done well my son with your informative diligence and provided vital clues the the questions of whose arse the Sunny shines.
The kid therefore seems to have more cred than rumours held. if he is a BH boardriders member, either he has gotta answer to them or Sunny does.
Interesting to see whose side BH board riders take…watch this space.
The brazilli had a close shave (geez i laugh at how f&%ken funny i am) and has done the honourable thing and entered a float in the Florinanopolos Mardi gras dressed in a purple g string with matching briuses sporting a resplendid tat of real social clout “Briuses by Sunny” which immediately gets him an A pass into any after perty he attends…lucky bastard.
So there we have the latest update on the real story…
Keep that info flowing so we get to the truth.
H, get back on the street and keep digging dude.

DONT CALL ME DUDE

Harris,
You gotta know some s74t to add to the mix.
what is the drum with the Baz phtog, My ears tell me he was just trying to milk the story because he got in the way and was bowled over…???
