Frank Latta once tried his hand at proffesional boxing but found out the hard way he was much better suited to surfing and shaping. Especially his local hangout the urchin spine covered reef known as Sandshoes. Franks legend at Shoes is still talked about fondly by the old time locals today. The photo below was by Bob Weeks.
