Just ordered THE BOOK "Journals from the Edge" from amazon from Legendary author Bill Boyum.

Bill Boyum is a LEGEND of a bloke discovered Grajagan e.g. G-land in the early 70's well before Gerry Lopez discovered G-Land from the 1981 movie Storm Riders. So looking forward to reading this book
I've heard there's some heavy stuff in this book = I know if I was old enough in the 70's I guess i would have done the same thing.

As they say 100 miles of travel is more educational than 100 years of school.

Downwinder, G-Land August 2000. I heard about G-Land in Bali 1980 it took me 20 years to go to Java to surf the place. That board was a 7'10'' shape by Sam Egan
