Cronulla was a hive of activity this weekend  as Retrospect 2016 celebrated the first Malibu surfboards to arrive in Australia in 1956 with legend big wave surfer Greg Noll and his Olympic team mates put on a demonstration at Cronulla Point. Noll was back in Cronulla today celebrating Cronulla as the birth place of modern day surfing in Qz. With a retro board display and photos, a toothpick display and unveiling a Point plaque celebrating the event. Thanks to surfing NSW and Surfing Sutherland Shire for making it happen.
