Krusher's story had several interesting angles - riding good waves and pursuing an idea in a corner of the world where such boards are little known.

Just about all the paipo interviews are with people who have been forgotten about or little known outside a local area. There are of course some notable exceptions, but if you did a poll of most of the names, to say the editor of the Surfing Encyclopaedia, I'd bet he'd know few of them.

A minor update to Keith Usher's interview: the rail profile photograph displayed in the interview has been enlarged and clicking on it will provide an even larger view. This seemed to be appropriate given the discussion on the other thread about the rail transition and chime in the rear portion of the board. The large image is also shown below.
