Personally I think they should learn to ride their 10 foot 666's with grace like a nice old log. Now that is style. Most of them still try and treat them like a bigger version of a 666 with those horrible arms flashing everywhere in an Unco-ordinated fashion wishing they were on a shortie. SP needs to post some clips of real log style gurus That's what they should be aiming for.
what a ripper of a read - thanks for posting!

Didn't see any mention of this a few weeks back so R.I.P Rabbit..
It is with a heavy heart that we report the passing of Waikiki’s Albert “Rabbit” Kekai, who died at Leahi Hospital in Honolulu this morning.
He was 95 years old.Born in 1920 in Honolulu, the young Rabbit quickly earned a reputation as one of the city’s most gifted natural athletes; he was reportedly as fast on land as he was adept in the water, which caught the attention of Duke Kahanamoku during Rabbit’s formative years as a beachboy, a vocation he continued for decades.
Throughout his life, Rabbit worked a myriad of maritime jobs. During the Second World War, he served in the Navy as a UDT swimmer, the precursor for the modern-day Navy SEALs, helping to clear beaches of Japanese defenses in Micronesia. After the war, he worked construction and as a longshoremen in Honolulu. Through it all, his passion for surfing remained.
But his energetic, high-performance surfing — a strange, exhilarating sight, compared to the conservative angled approach of surfing’s early history — led to a renowned influence on the sport and its epcoch-turning figures, like Phil Edwards and Donald Takayama.On a competitive level, Rabbit held the titles in both the Peruvian and Makaha International events. Up until recently, he served as the beach marshall for the Triple Crown and was a stalwart figure at the competition.“It’s an end of an era,” Randy Rarick, a co-founder of the Triple Crown, told the Star-Advertiser. When Rarick was 10, Rabbit taught him to surf in Waikiki. “He led a great life,” Rarick added. “He’s riding that big wave in the sky, happy with what he’s done.”

About me: After loosing faith in mankind I have been living on my classic little yacht. When near land, you will find me anchored close to the heads or in offshore bays. From here it is easy to make my escape on the good old S.V. Mignotte with another plump cabinboy as spare rations. I enjoy relaxing in my yachts teak interior with the lanterns burning and a good bottle of red, listening to ABC National, reading about exploration, voyaging and the abnormal psychology of sexual deviancy and serial killers....
In case you were wondering yes thanatophilla is exactly what you thought it was ! ! ! ! ! !
