Wave Warriors Return
Are you ready for the North Shore.
Leave it to Herbie Fletcher to start this episode of “The Thrill is Back” with a wipeout section aptly cut to the Surfari’s Wipe Out. Nostalgia’s such a lovely drug. Here we’re presented with vintage cuts from the grittier days on the North Shore, days, when you got your head kicked if you chandeliered someone at Pipe…now you just get sent in. Days when the Wolf Pak whistle incited anxiety followed by scrapes and bruises. Back when if you were new to the lineup, you’d avoid the eyes of Johnny Boy Gomes amongst other enforcers. Here are the early days of high-performance surfing that sparked out modern evolution.
