From the time I started surfing I loved visiting Pure Surf, Nicks shop. The smell of resin
, the foam dust everywhere, the old photos on the walls and the twin towers of old magazines to flick through always provoked thoughts of surfing joy.
I have learnt a lot about boards and surfing over the years from talking to Nick. Spending the time with him making this clip reminded me how much wisdom he has to share.

Great clip. Probably the most humble and approachable bloke you’ll ever meet. Always has time for everyone and happy to share his knowledge and passion. His reputation exceeds him for good reason.

I recently re-discovered my first all foam board no fins fron the 60s That brought back many a good memory. Nick you are very correct surfing was a very social event in the 70s you new just about every one, we would never lock our cars and nothing ever went missing. Then it was down to the Bay Inn or Travs for a few beers with your mates and to tell a few good tall tales of all the waves ridden on the weekend.
