pushing 70 and still surfing...
I got back into surfing in '96 after a 20 year layoff. My buddy and I rented a couple boards in Hawaii to see if we could still do it. He was much better than me, which inspired me to work my ass off and improve.We both ended up with a quiver of longboards and surfed from Alaska to Costa Rica, dragging our wives along, all the while having a ball. ALS took him 3 years ago and I promised him to ride every wave for us as long as I could.
My original goal was to surf until age 70. Turned 69 last week, so I've pushed that goal up to 80 - Billy on Swaylocks
