Late 80’s Ashley Gee was a regular fixture in the lineup every time Shark Island began to rumble. He was on it each new swell and always a candidate to pick up the wave of the day. This shot, Ash finds the zone with the picture featured in a Surfing Life article photographed by Chris Stroh.

Murph was an all round talent from 1ft contest mush to maxed out Voodoo or classic perfect pits in unchartered reefs in Indo, he was a standout in all conditions. This pic, pig dogging The Point late 80’s photo Stroh

Spike was one of the founding members of Kurranulla Boardriders Club in 1978 which was setup by G&S to promote young local talent. Eventually that club morphed into Cronulla Boardriders which still stands strong today. Spike as a founding member was given the honor of Life Membership in CBC.

Gooch

Cronulla Beach has produced more than its share of talented surfers over the years but for some unknown explanation or possible geographical reasons a lot of riders don’t get the same chances as those from other beaches. Stuart Gooch is a typical example, so much natural talent that if he lived on the Northside or Goldcoast he would have been a household name in surfing.

Les Martin grew up at Cronulla on a healthy diet of heavy waves. A Point and Island regular Chook could always be found not far from the danger zone. This shot from a sequence by Chris Stroh early 80’s.
