More Gerry Lopez Stand Up Paddle Surf Photos

Here's a couple more from LJS's roll of spy film. Check 'em:


Photo: Stuck to the face like a fly on tar paper. Nice and glassy... and mean (or as Sheldon would say: meeaaannn!).


Photo: Is it me or is that thing forming a little ledgey-Shipsterny double up right below GL's board? It may look serenely hypnotic but the truth is probably something a little less pastoral.


Photo: Another example of the gnarl-factor: check out how much of his board is out of the water as he comes over this little ledge. What are you thinking on that board? 8'6, 8'10? I'm making the call that it's under 9'0... anybody out there with some data?


Photo: Cakewalk... nuff said.

Yep- I had heard that it was an 8'10 custom that he made for himself... anybody else?

I'm guessing the same: 8′11 “Lil’ Darlin'
