Vale Ben Aipa
All photos and excerpt from Duke Aipa's moving tribute shared with the greatest of respect and Aloha
via Aipa Surf
"A man from the simplest of backgrounds who would change the face of surfing...
A humble colossus whose impact echoed thru the decades...masterfully mentoring generations of champions...in and out of the water...in competition and life....
and somehow in all this...finding the time to stoke out tens of thousands of surfers with the best shaped boards all around the world along the way.....
Most of you know Ben Aipa, the surfer, the shaper,the coach or the legend...but to me he’s just my dad and I’m so very proud of him and I’ll Miss him dearly.
Dad...I hope you enjoy the next part of your journey . @akila_aipa and I have this from here and we’ll make you proud "
Aloha Oe’
A Hui Hou
My brother and I invite those who loved him and are able, to join us August 17TH on our dads birthday at Ala Moana Bowls to celebrate his life." #benaipa

Photos from Surf World Gold Coast's post From Cooly Kid to Kirra Dad, you've probably guessed that our showcase legend this week from our museum is Mick Fanning.
He was born in Penrith west of Sydney in 1981and moved to Tweed Heads when he was 12 years old. He was truly a talented junior and went on to join the World Tour in 2002 and surfed professionally for the next 16 years.
Mick had a lucky escape from a great white shark attack during the J-Bay open in South Africa in 2015.
He loves his footy and is a mad supporter of the Penrith Panthers.
Mick still resides on the Gold Coast with his fiancee Breeana and their son Xander.

Photos from Surf World Gold Coast's post The legends keep coming from our Surf World Museum. This time featuring: Mark "MR" Richards.
Mark was born in 1957 and grew up in Newcastle NSW and learnt to surf at Blacksmiths Beach just south of Newcastle. He got his first taste of the Gold Coast when his family went to Rainbow Beach on holidays and Mark surfed Snapper Rocks.
He's a 4 times World Champion and was inducted into the Australian Surfing Hall of Fame in 1985.
His nickname "The Wounded Seagull" came from his splayed arms stance when making turns and cutbacks.
Marks twin fin board design changed the thinking of a generation of surfers by generating extra speed and tighter turns.
Today he still lives in Newcastle with his wife Jenny and still runs the Mark Richards Surf Shop the same shop his parents started.
