Longboard Luau

My photographer friend Marlo Yoshimoto got me a gig as a photographer for the Longboard Luau at Scripps Pier in La Jolla today. It's a fundraiser to fight cancer and today $380K were raised. Many surfing legends support this event and it was amazing to see so many faces I know from surf movies and magazines. Here are some group shots, I will post more (including actual surfing shots and photos from the Luau) soon. Look for Robert August, Wingnut and Mike Hynson from ENDLESS SUMMER, veteran surfer Mickey Munoz and female surf pioneer Linda Benson. The "mermaid" in the front is Jericho Poppler.
