Really enjoy these interviews with my childhood surf heroes!

Back in the 1990's I used to email Corky with surfing questions. He always patiently answered my questions. Great guy.

I remember seeing the Miller Lite ad filmed in Long Branch NJ. Great fun.

I remember Corky surfing Cottons Pt on a big south swell in '76. He showed up wearing a sleeveless springsuit with a red t-shirt underneath. Anyone else would of been laughed off the beach. But he went out and ripped the place apart. Classic Corny.

Last time I seen Corky he was one of the Pipeline contest hosts in the early 80's. Very cool!

Surfed with Corky three times: Haleiwa in '68 or early '69; chunky 8' Pupukea in abt '73; and Kaisers on July 4, 1980. I wonder if Corky remembers taking exception to a cocky teenager calling my friend a "California kook"? My friend was a regular-foot from Manhattan Beach and was trying to learn to switchfoot the shoulder-high lefts at Kaisers. Corky probly remembers that I had to submit the disrespectful young guy to a well-deserved Kaiser-Boy reprimand. Live and learn, kid. But Corky? He was ripping at every spot mentioned, including Pupukea, where he was riding a twin-fin in meaty waves.
