not the old school guys but. Sunny, Occy, Egan, Hoy, Curren, Carroll etc ... they had the place wired. i remember seeing margo out there on a 6-8ft swell, mighta been when ganey was shooting pulse.
and margo at big bells was close to as good as it gets.
i heart margo and his use of big foamy boards.
you know a secret, hell good board?
the margo nugget by dhd. pretty much the only dhd i'd ever think about owning. I had one, 6'4" like 20 something wide and 2 3/4 thick. Used it for big beachies and burleigh in the late 90's when you really needed to paddle.
