JR worked on my first board in 1964 in Pompano Beach Fla. I was a 14 year old kid and Jack was a great guy. He and some of the older guys from the shop would take some of us kids surfing with them sometimes. What a great way to learn surfing. We had a great time. It's so cool to run across a video of an old, old friend.
I recently met Jack while staying on the property next to his shop. I know nothing about surfing, so had no idea who he was or what was going on inside this little shop. He invited us in for a look, and showed us what he does. Felt like I was seeing a part of surfing history. Besides being what I would call one hell of a craftsman, he is a genuinely nice person.
