Aloha and Welcome to this LEGENDARY SURFERS chapter on the Hot Curl surfers, 1930s to the 1950s. In Portable Document Format (PDF) format, the material is taken from personal interviews with Hot Curl surfers Woody Brown, Wally Froiseth, Fran Heath and Russ Takaki. Some of these interviews were later published, in edited form, in The Surfer’s Journal and Longboard magazines in the late 1990s.
While all of the information in this ebook is available in separate chapters at the LEGENDARY SURFERS website, what is different about this ebook is that the Hotcurl story is laid out chronologically and includes the major Hot Curl surfers together in one chapter.
“Legends of the Hot Curl” comprises 60 pages (30,252 words, 1.5 MB) containing text and two pages of footnotes. Please disregard any embedded hyperlinks. They are most all out of date.
