Jose Angle by Greg Noll

142

every time i walk into Surf and Sea surf shop in Haleiwa, i go straight the the right side of the store and look up.  this is were my step father Jose Angel’s surfboard is hanging.  it brings back memories because it’s probably one of the same model of board that i stood up on my first wave.  i was 6 years old and i still remember riding it with him at Haleiwa.

i would love to ride this board right now.  if i had the chance, i would probably paddle it out with no leash to 20′ out of control closing out Sunset Beach.  the reason is i want to try it in same conditions just like how i watched him do it back in the 1970’s.  

shaped by Greg Noll for Jose Angel.  i get chicken skin every time i look at this board.  and now that i’m getting older, i really want it…
