Sorry Burry, I knew that this would hit home with you.

I knew Ron a little and he always impressed me as a very good guy.

I remember surfing with Nomad team riders the Ladd brothers. I loved the Nomad shapes from the beginning of the 80's. Its been a very cool resurrection of the old shop too.

Good deal, Burry.

Did you take that board I gave you? Though I imagine you had plenty of Nomad stix.
