Lanky's Hawaiian Trivia

Ol' mate Lanky Dean is back in Hawaii. He's been sending through random photos: weird waves, good surfers, guys mowing the lawn in their thongs - all sorts of stuff.

This photo came captioned:

"Who's board is this?"

My response?

"The green gun makes me think of Winton but he never had those sponsors.

"Brock also rode green boards (or had green on them, he was born on St Patrick's day) but he mostly rode for Gotcha.

"Tom Carroll rode for Quik and O'Neill but never at the same time. Doubt he would've ridden Willis bros as he was on Rawson's from a young age.

"Liam rode Willis bros but never those sponsors.

"Dunno, Marvin Foster? Mickey Nielson?"

Wrong. The red buzzer lit up and made the 'buh-bow' sound.

Fucken Lanky...

Asked me to post that pic as part of his Lanky's Hawaiian Trivia. So I did, three hours ago, and he's gone to a luau or something. Heard nothing since.

Is it the board Greg Brady was riding when he wore an unlucky tiki?

OK, just realised Greg Brady wasn't a goofy and he wasn't much chop at tow-surfing either, so I'm saying it's the first board Lopez himself used at Atom Blaster nee Jaws nee Peahi.

I'd say it's Gerry's personal board. Its history - no idea.

It's gotta have been ridden by Lopez, it's one of his shapes and he was also sponsored by Chiemsee for many years.

So I'm also saying Lopez board ridden by him in North Shore. I reckon the tow straps were retrofitted onto it.

Either retrofitted or just a very early tow board. They were a lot longer (and arguably still should be?).
