PVA with legendary surfboard shaper Terry Martin, who according to his Rainbow Sandals ad in Surfer's Journal (Vol. 18, No. 4), has shaped 75,000 surfboards, starting in 1952 (when he was 14).
At left, in the photo of The Factory in San Clemente, there's Terry Martin headed in with a longboard blank under his arm. He disappeared into an "employees only" area, then came out a few minutes later in the shop. Where I caught up with him and thereupon received about 25 minutes of surfing/shaping history. He is amazing.
