Garret Parkes Surfing Magazine

Post by Jimputz »

While browsing through the new SURFING mag I was drooling over a 2 page spread of some rediculous left pointbreak shot and to my surprise it was Dave Parkes's son Garrett "pigdoggin" the perfect overhead barrel. :)
And then..........about 10 pages later ANOTHER 2 page spread with Garrett setting up for a big shack.
Congratulations are definitely in order!!

Hey Dave.............Jimbo Lynch was wondering if your son's riding a FRIAR TUCK????
