“The Fish was the epitome of the backyard board. The backyard revolution was sweeping through the surfing world in the late '60s and early '70s, as new ideas came faster – and old dogma tossed away more readily – than the big-time, cookie-cutter surf industry could react to in time. The Fish was designed in obscurity and popularized by word of mouth – in direct contrast to the over-hyped and superstar-endorsed log models put out by the major manufacturers at that time.” Dave Parmenter http://www.surfline.com/surfaz/fish.cfm
