This photo pretty much sums up surfing Blackies

I am riding an 11' board and it looks small compared to the sup.

RIP GARY EDGAR

Anyone who surfed the Newport Beach area in the 80's through the 90's

knew Gary and if you did not know him you could see him from a

mile away with his signature florescent wetsuits and boards.

I first meet Gary while surfing contests around southern california in the 80's. After moving to Costa Mesa in the mid 90's I started shaping out of Gary's glass shop "Clear Water Glassing". I shaped out of his glass shop for many years. He was quit the prankster and there was never a duel moment in that shop, we laughed a lot, we surfed a lot, we had our ups and downs and we built a lot of surfboards together, and though it all we became pretty good friends.

Gary lost his battle with cancer yesterday, he will be truly missed.
