1. 1965 SHOWN by Bruce Brown in various venues.
2. the surfing was done during the 1963-64 period.
3. During 1964 Hynson was back at G&S in San Diego, producing his cutaway fins that influenced changes in board maneuverability, although he may have taken the idea from Australia. George Greenough may have been an important contributor to that and other design changes, as by 1964 he had already been visiting and influencing designs.
4. So much was undiscovered due to Apartheid, beyond East London, and extending to Natal, were the Ciskei and Transkei "republics" where forced resettlement by the Dutch Afrikaaners of the Xhosa people (there are about 20 different peoples living in South Africa) may have been off-limits to surf exploration. You will have to ask people of that age to tell you about any of this.

....its a joke of a wave....I travelled half way around the world...total disappointment . TH-cam views...what a joke.

[@emil.i.lonneberget]

ahha yeah a bit overhyped maybe..."killers" a bit further up on the line looks better tho

[@timothyslaughter476]

I'll surf it. Gladly.

[@seabass7282]

pretty stupid to travel halfway across the world for a wave that is notoriously fickle

[@swibwi]

looks a bit mushy..

[@emil.i.lonneberget]
