Here are some of Patrick Trefz photographs from the making of his 16mm surf film “Thread” that I was fortunate enough to be a part of. We filmed in Santa Barbara (shots of my brother Tom and I in the studio) and traveled to Greece (trees) and Cabo Verde (surf frame grab). Here’s links to Trefz’s websites that have more of his photographs and info on the film and book. He also has a new film in the work, “Idiosyncrasies”, set to release this year. It should be a good one…

I really like the early seventies Surfer covers without the blurbs, especially these two with the old truck and Rincon lineup and the sequence of J. Riddle wearing a beaver tail at Little Drakes…
