It has taken a while, but I am in the process of updating my website of the past and some present history of early prone surfing in continental Europe.
http://home.brisnet.com.au/~bgreen/Europe/index2.shtml
I'm looking for old photos of boards, people surfing or making them and any information about these people. I have also included some information about people still riding these old style boards. The French section is awaiting confirmation about some photos.
Let me know if there are any errors or new information.
Thanks
Bob

Re: Calling all Europeans
I have a lot more information on the postal card and a better translation than our early attempts that show up on Geoff's Pods for Primates website. It is buried under a pile of other stuff.
