A few year’s ago, paddling out on a foggy morning at Cape Kiwanda, through the fog,I see three of the local quibs explaining to a fourth surfer about how I had ruined the break. The fourth surfer turns around and says “Surfing is a wonderful thing and it would be a better world if everybody surfed .” Sort of ruined localism in South Country for awhile. You’re a kind soul,thank you Gerry.

Think about those days, surfers all living on the beach, life was easy and fun, now all about . Imagine life in the 70s, I remember in the 90s in Australia where everyone lived in beach houses and surfed, all gone now, ripped down and sold to investors.

Thanks Jerry, 1971 you were making the rounds and hit up Trestles about 10-12 way to big but paddled out,,,watched you drop in and do your stuff ...you kicked out right by me and you were so gracious and said paddle hard grom....and you despaired into the ocean like you had a motor on your board......thanks it was fun Jerry....

Yeah saw him at Hookipa on Maui in 91 or 92. I was surfing Hookipa alone (a bit sideshore) and he was in the carpark with some of his buddies ... but it's impossible to tell if they were Hawaiians or Samoans or Filipinos or whatever. He said something to me (nice) and we all just smiled because it was obvious where I was from.

Eh Gerry, don,t know if you will see this but just wanted you to know that it was very inspiring to surf with you back on Maui!

What a treat to see and hear my surf idol,of my youth - $160 Lightening Bolt board (used) and lastly I use to attend gun shows in SoCal when I was in my teens, and lo and behold I saw Gerry Lopez with bunch of his buddies.. I am 100% sure I was the only person in the entire gun show who even knew who he was.. ah, kicks man. So glad to see him doing so well!

I had that kind of experience cause I was trying to learn how to ski at Mt bachelor in bend oregon and working with the kids at the ski school about the year 2000 and so I knew all the ski and snowboard instructors and this guy I knew taught snowboarding and he was like a pro and he knew I was a surfer from southern California and he tells me " I got this student today and his kid or group or something and supposedly he's a huge surf legend, Jerry lopez" , I nearly fell over and he was like " is he a big deal" and I was like he's like meeting the pope and my friend said " oh " and had no clue who he was...

15 years ago I was in Mexico on my bodyboard which I use when the waves get double overhead and this guy comes out on his stand up paddle board mastering these waves. When I got on the beach some guy says to me “Did you know who you were sharing waves with?” It was Jerry Lopez! FYI it was a point break left, big giant slow waves.
