Hey all, I know this is a long shot, and my memory is a little hazy... so here goes.

I think it was on here about a year ago that someone posted a topic like "help to find a surfing pic" or similar... with a vague description of it...

The pic is of a whole bunch of surfers sitting on boards out to the side of (and all watching) a huge big death bowl wave that seems to be breaking in a crescent shape just beyond where the surfers are sitting.

It looked like it was out of an old surf magazine from the 80s or 70s since the colours are all a bit orange, and the wetsuits/rashies have fluoro!

I want to find this photo and hopfully get a print made of it.

Cheers if anyone can help

Hey Jimi, you can get that as a poster/print in shops here in Sydney. My brother in law has a really big print of it hanging in his living room

Yeh, that's exactly it! Cheers for finding it! I spent about a full day (at work) trawling through the old posts with no luck!

Aloha, can you recommend any shops you know of who have it? I'm thinking about getting a print about 19"x24" or there abouts to hang in my living room :)

I've seen it framed in Crows Nest, poster shop opposite to the sports center. Sure there must be others...
