A few weeks ago I blogged about UK surf history and Bilbo surfboards.
I acquired an original Bilbo 1970's single fin a few years ago and a friend has recently just got his hand on one too - in much better nick than mine I might add!
Sadly the man behind them and the Bilbo surfing empire - Bill Bailey, died a few weeks ago (28 April 2009) aged 75.
Bill pretty much invented the UK surf scene and set us on the path we now follow so his influence should never be underestimated.
