A longtime Alley local Patch has been a fixture down at Northies since the late 80’s. When he was not thrashing it out in his Punk band he was a regular out at the Alley Rip Bowl. Patch and his Sharky board artwork image by Craig Stroh.

Mick Majenavic won the CBC Club Championship in 1990 even beating Occy in a final. These days he’s charging hard with Jezza, Grigsy, Rusty, Boogs and Brad towing in at the reefs on the biggest swells. Pic Chris Stroh early 90’s.

Stuart Gooch

Gooch is one of those natural talented surfers who could have taken his surfing much further had he wanted to. In ’91 he was EBC Club champion then in ’92 and ’95 he was CBC Open Champ. Also in ’91 Gooch entered the history books winning the Alley Masters event. Instead of chasing the Pro dream Gooch saved his best for his free surfing sessions along the beachies at home. Today Gooch is still ripping just as hard as always. Water angle  photo Craig Stroh late 90’s.

Damien Hodge

In the latter half of the 80’s a nuggety little kid called Damien Hodge showed heaps of potential and looked to be heading in the same direction as Occy. Jason and Richard Marsh took him under their coaching wing and he looked set to be the next big thing from Cronulla after he was sponsored by Billabong and Peak. Damien in the coming years may not have reached early expectations but he still was and is a solid surfer who on his day is up there with the best. This pic of Damien is when he was still a very young grommy. Photo Chris Stroh
