OCCY

HERE IS OCCY AFTER HIS LAST HEAT ON THE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP TOUR. HE HAS BEEN A HERO TO FANS ALL OVER THE WORLD AN I'M ONE OF THEM. WE HAVE BEEN MAKING OCC'S BOARDS FOR ALMOST 10 YEARS AND I REMEMBER OCC TELLING ME THAT A 6'3'' THAT WE MADE FOR HIM HELPED HIM WIN THE TITLE IN 1999. I WAS SO HAPPY THAT WE COULD HAD A PART IN THAT. WE SURE ARE GOING TO MISS HIM. I WISH HIM ALL THE BEST AND CONGRATULATIONS ON A FABULOUS CAREER!

THIS WAVE WAS FROM THE BEGINNING OF THIS YEAR. THE BOARD WAS A 7'0'' ONE OF OCCY'S OLD BOARDS HE GAVE BACK TO ME. LAST YEAR WAS A GRRAT YEAR FOR WAVES. THIS YEAR SEEMS TO BE A LITTLE SLOW ON QUALITY SURF. IT'S TOO BAD THAT THE PIPE MASTERS WAS HELD IN 2-3 FOOT SURF. PRAY FOR SURF! ALOHA!
