Rich Harbour’s Seal Beach garage: where his whole ride got started.

There’s an article in a 1969 issue of SURFER Magazine, in which filmmakers Greg MacGillivray and Jim Freeman traveled to France while shooting their latest feature “Waves of Change.” Accompanying them were surfers Mark Martinson and Billy Hamilton. While posted up in Biarritz they encountered Australian champion Keith Paull, who joined the film team sampling waves along the Cote d’Basque. These were early days in the “Shortboard Revolution”, and Martinson was riding an ungainly, square-tailed, deep vee-bottom design, shaped by longtime board sponsor Rich Harbour. Paull, by contrast, was riding a much more refined, smoother-surfing roundtail, which at one point Martinson borrowed and didn’t want to give back.
