Larry has been a well known identity in the Cronulla surfing community since the mid 60’s. The day this pic was taken was the same day Geoff Solness scored the cover shot to Nat Youngs History of Surfing in the red rip curl steamer. Larry scored a few that winters day in 1980. It was big and heavy and only a few out. The photo of Larry below appeared in one of the US mags.
