POWER POSSE

At some time in the '80's, before the OP Pro Surf Contest, I was watching the action at the Huntington Beach Pier.

A young bloke caught my eye - power jammin' with fluidity and style - a contained explosive aggression - no spurious rail changes - just pure on the rail surfing. Someone like me who also worshipped the Gods of Carve and Power. Lightning laid out there in front of you, ready to explode.

His name was Brad Gerlach and for while he was the #1 surfer on the planet - maximum flair and charisma, and mucho drive and ambition. I was honored to be able to sponsor boards for Brad to help him as he took his first steps on his path to greatness.

I connect periodically with Brad and he is a treat to be around. Lots of style without flash, a genuine warmth and mega cred. beyond his pro tour wins. Brad and his pal Snips Parsons rode some of the biggest waves ever, out on the terrifying Cortez Banks.

This pic was taken a couple days ago at the grand opening of SHACC - the Surfing Heritage & Culture Center that is dedicated to preserving and honoring surf culture.

One day me and Brad are going to do a program fusing his surf technique maximizer, Wave Ki, with my Code Method - igniting purpose to maximize performance.

Watch out for more lightning!

Good vibes always B-Rad.
