Our host seems to be still kicking. There is a new article in "News" from yesterday (Dec 28), and a sign up page for an email newsletter.

A Few Things We Got Horribly Wrong Throughout Our 60-Year History

Last one is that they should have given our very own Dale Webster (aka surf cat) more coverage:

"...In the June 2004 issue, Webster got his wish. Kind of. Rather than devote the cover to Webster, he got a minuscule photo and blurb, barely visible over the SURFER title. “Dale Makes it to 10,407!” it read. Not exactly a cover. But then again, not not a cover. Either way, we could have given Webster a little more real estate."

He's the very definition of "Surfer."

In the mid 2000's Surfer ran a photo feature of an East Coast hurricane season and the center spread was a beautiful picture of one of my friends, a long time local as Shack where the pic was taken, bottom turning on a well overhead wave but gave credit to a different guy. Someone that only came to that break a few times. That to me was one of the biggest things Surfer got wrong in their 60-year history.
