Mousetrap 1966 - I worked there as a busboy while in college and surfed across the street at the pier.
Later traded jobs with a classmate ... he went to the Mousetrap and I went to Food Fair. Can't do that these days. Sometimes, left my 9'6" in the stockroom there if surfing that day. Other local fun spots back then were Winslow Beach and the Apollo bldg. Good days at the day were measured by ..."if it was big enough to take off out at the pier's snack bar". The Snack Bar right. So much sand added there now. Back then, the end of the pier would only break if it was overhead. ------------------------- ... positioning and selection |

Back to the 80's
-Web Gloves -Richie Collins -Christain Fletcher (Anti-Christ) and frontside punt that won Trestles, maybe one of the first airs ever landed in a major contest. -Chernobyl's Surfer Mag article: As one of surfing’s most iconic rebels — nicknamed The Anti-Christ of Surfing — Fletcher evolved the aerial from a mere trick to a major force in surfing’s evolution. With his progressive outlook and aggressive execution, moves like the air-reverse and stale-fish became an integral part of surf vocabulary, especially in competition. But Fletcher despised competition. He notoriously claimed he “could[n't] give a f*ck about being a world champion.” His competitive edge? He simply “like[d] to go out and f*ck with people during the heats.” Despite this distaste for putting on a jersey, Fletcher took center stage at the 1989 Surf Bout held at Lower Trestles. The event allowed him to showcase his skills on one of surfing’s biggest stages — and to, of course, go out and “f*ck with” the top pros. The PSAA event boasted the largest prize purse ever for the time: $100,000. As a result of this huge purse, Surf Bout carried an unusually large amount of prestige as well. While the then-unseeded 19-year-old spent his rest time between heats playing Skate or Die on Nintendo, during heats he ripped, eventually reaching the final where he would take down Joey Jenkins, Colin Smith, and Noah Budroe for the title and a hefty $31,725 in cash.

Parking your car on the dune at Spanish House. Those days the license plate had your county on it. Being from PBC we always took my friends, his plate had Brevard (for some reason) to avoid the wax job. |
