I grew up with Surfer Magazine. In fact, I worked for them for 6 years (1985-1990).

I also ran the ESA-CFL district for 4 years. The first year with with Ke11y's dad, Steve.

I, for the life of me, cannot understand how this thread equates Donald J Trump with the death of Surfer Mag.

Please enlighten me.

Randy : That particular post is part of a 5 page thread titled : SURFER magazine just published its last issue . Originally started innocently enough here in the surfing forum by Central Floridadave , it was subsequently hijacked and politicized to such an extent that the Admin moved the entire thread to the NSR forum -------where it is now buried on page 14 or 15 . If you have never been to the NSR forum , it is EXTREMELY whacked out and very entertaining to say the least . It is also the most active on 2nd Light.

The train wreck of second light....

Specializing in sarcasm and condescending rhetoric since 1971.

Do any of them work? Where do they find the time to post XXXXXXX times a day. It's a bit creepy. I think to myself "I bought a surfboard off this guy?"

No they do not have jobs

That's pretty cool.... the 1st issue of my 1st subscription was Feb. 1988 What did you do for them? More recently, have had friends the editors and photo editors of Transworld, then Surfing... then went of to be "field editor / writer" for Surfer.... it's a shame what's happenning to the print industry. Everyone wants to stare at their RGB glowing screens, but it's not the same as holding the pages in your hand.

As I recall at the time ,they had a Great and unprecedented supplemental East Coast insert in the VERY center of the Magazine , and I believe Randy was the Central Florida correspondent / editor? Randy ????
