When did gerry lopez get into the soft top biz?
- Thread starter kane
- Start date
Had a kid that worked for me years ago. He said he had worked up at Yvonne's Hollister property and part of his daily duties was to high pressure spray the eaves so sparrows could not start nests. Just seemed odd to me, but may be total BS.
On Gerry - I believe his 8' is taking over the Wavestorm spot at Costco, they are all made at the same factory in Taiwan, with Catch, stormblade etc, so just an aesthetic switch. Gerry also has a line of lighting bolt boards with Surftech, but I can't recall the construction, pretty sure PU/PE resin tints out of Cobra in Thailand.
cha-ching!
just sold a beatup baord to some kid who didnt want to ride a wavestorm anymore. there IS hope!
Love to see a surfer (and a Hawaiian 
) getting that Costco bag.

They are recyclable. I saw a dude with one in the return line at Costco the other day.

Someone should convince Dick Brewer to make a foamie big wave gun, available only at Hawaiian Costco locations.
For those of you not aware, Costco now sells a 5'10" shortboard for $200. Looking forward to the upcoming Noel Salsa review.

Saw a dood at Costco yesterday with 3 softtop Gerrys in his cart. He grabbed the last 3 in the store.
Was walking around trying not to hit anyone with them, it was comical. We got to the registers about the same time. The clerks told him that he could only get 2 at a time. So, in the next register some guy who wanted one, but couldnt get one because this douche had taken the last 3, said he'd take it, he had 3 kids, and so he got one. Asked the clerk if they had more coming, they said no, no more coming for the future. He wanted to come back and get 2 more. I stopped short of asking what he was doing with 3 at the time.
I figured he was:
1- surf camp instructor/owner (looked like the typical to me)
2- worked or owned a surf shop that was renting or re-selling them.(had a surf shop swetshirt on)
3- selling them on craigslist. (i've seen a local listing)
who needs 3?
