Here are some pics some of you guys may get a kick out of.
Any one recognise the guy on the bottom left of the rip curl advert or the shops behind the Ferrari? How about the guy in the Gaastra wetsuit advert - a young guy who got bigger and faster since this ad from 1994.

The Rip Curl ad contains one now well known sail designer on the left who started on Sydney's northern beaches. Main pic taken on the Long Reef sand dunes.
Great find!!!!!!1

The technology has changed but I reckon most of the people had fun just getting out on the water.

Picture is reversed. look at the numbers on the sailor's back. Stuff in the sails reads ok because they're see-through.

So they didn't use that gear to tack 20km up wind to lancelin?
