Surf hall of fame announces inductees
The Surfers’ Hall of Fame committee has announced its 2005 class
of inductees, who will go into the hall during a July 29 ceremony at
Main Street and Pacific Coast Highway.
The induction will take place at 10 a.m. at 300 Pacific Coast
Highway.
This year’s inductees are: Robert McKnight, CEO and president of
Quiksilver; Tom Carroll, famed Australian surfer who dominated the
1980s; Mark Richards, who took the twin-fin innovation and claimed
four consecutive world titles, and the late Carl Hayward, a local
surfboard shaper who died earlier this year in his beloved arena, the
ocean.
The Surfers’ Hall of Fame is the first imprint collection of
legendary surfers on the West Coast. Each year the committee, which
consists of business owners, surfers and surf industry professionals,
chooses inductees based on their contribution to the sport and
lifestyle of surfing.
