OLD OWL SHOP

One of my prized possession's

Team jacket from early 70's

Andreini with Jeff's White Owl balsa gun he did for him .

Marc and myself with our longboards around 1975

The old Owl shop in Summerland founded by Jeff White who sadly passed on yesterday. Jeff was always so cool to me at the old Surf and Wear shop and later when Marc Andreini and I built boards together for the shop. I think thats Marc in the doorway, he was a team rider back then. I think Jeff still has that Jeep Wagon. He was a great person, surfer, waterman, and lifegaurd. RIP White Owl.
