It has the name Becker stamped into it, is it the same Becker of Becker Surfboards?

Check out the pics, it needs a couple dings fixed, but overall is ok. Cool looking board if nothing else, single fin, no leash plug, the signed date on the top looks to be 1972...but I thought this type of board was more late 70's early 80s? any info is appreciated.

Thanks!

]]> General Discussion TashinMEDFORD http://www.nesurf.com/forums/showthread.php?t=26553 Earplug Brand of Choice http://www.nesurf.com/forums/showthread.php?t=26550&goto=newpost Wed, 08 Sep 2010 19:09:25 GMT I'm sure this has been discussed before, but for those of you who use them, what brand of ear plugs would you recommend?

I just saw an article on ESM's website about Sid and his surfers ear and it reminded me of my own. The DOC told me I'm 50% closed in one ear (consider myself lucky after 20 years of surfing) and I think its getting worse. I tried Mack's Aqua Blocs and I only get a seal on one ear, the other still leaks a bit. I'd like to find a set that's comfortable and will last, no more disposable ones. ]]> General Discussion luchador http://www.nesurf.com/forums/showthread.php?t=26550 Who will own nesurf http://www.nesurf.com/forums/showthread.php?t=26546&goto=newpost Wed, 08 Sep 2010 13:30:43 GMT I see the current bid is up to 20k (in cash equivalent) Who will own NESURF?

I have from time to time posted up photographs on this forum and thought i'd pass on the info,, sorry for the shameless self promotion but.. if i dont do it nobody will

For those who are unaware, Drift is an essential online surf magazine of sorts. Drift seems to have its finger on the pulse of many aspects of the "alternative surf" scene and independent surf journalism. The products carried in the store attempt to support their efforts as well provide an avenue for emerging artists in the surf culture to expose and sell work. Stop by the link below and check out which prints they are carrying.

So on my lunch break a buddy and I went to a certain well-known beach break in northern Massachusetts. Nice and clean, mayyybe chest high on the sets? Regardless. After 3 minutes in the water the lifeguard rolls up and tells us the beach is closed due to the hurricane. The big bad hurricane sending giant 3 foot waves at us. Beaches are closed like the hurricane is a scary pedophile looking to touch children. He said we could go surf the shitty break 300 yards up the beach out of his jurisdiction. We weren't dicks to him because a) not his rule and b) he wasn't being a dick, but fuck, I really hate humans sometimes. I guess fine, close the beaches if there is a hurricane sitting on us, but there is no hurricane here and I think if the lifeguards were allowed to make some judgment calls, they could keep the masses safe while still allowing us to surf small waves. ]]> General Discussion dragonforce http://www.nesurf.com/forums/showthread.php?t=26500
