Using some quiet time over the Festive Season to dig up some Research for a friend of the Museum and came across this, which I don’t recall seeing before.

A feature on the adopted surf parents of the Sunshine Coast, Ma & Pa Bendall and what’s the Plus 50 question 🙄🤦‍♂️🏄🏼‍♂️

Gordon “Grubby” Clark founded Clark Foam in 1961, but his journey to becoming the leading producer of polyurethane foam surfboard blanks started years earlier. Clark learned to surf in around 1950 while going to school at Pomona College, where he eventually earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Engineering. He then spent two years in the army before going to work as a laminator for Hobie Surfboards. While he had been experimenting with polyurethane foam earlier, it was in about 1955 that Clark and Alter began looking in earnest for a lighter and more cost-effective core material to replace balsa. In 1958, Hobie switched all his boards from balsa to polyurethane.

Hobie Alter and Grubby Clark parted ways amicably in 1961, and Clark Foam was born. An engineer by education and known to be relentless by personality, Grubby built his business through efficiency and by constantly seeking to improve and refine his products. The Clark Foam line consisted of dozens of different blank shapes and sizes, with a variety of foam density options and rocker characteristics. In the heyday of Clark Foam, several hundred thousand blanks were being produced each year, distributed out of warehouses in California, Florida, Hawaii and Europe. It is estimated that Clark Foam owned 90% of the surfboard blank market worldwide.

No one is absolutely sure when and where surfing began here in Australia.

For a long time any history of Australian surfing gave the impression that Australians had to be shown how to surf, that we were waiting for someone to lead the way. In truth, Australians had been pursuing surfing for some time, in small numbers, and had developed some skills. Manly’s Tommy Walker was famous for doing headstands while surfing, and the oldest known image of anyone surfing in Australia is of him doing just that on his board at Yamba (NSW) in the summer of 1911-12. There is also the curious rumour of Australian servicemen arriving in Cape Town South Africa on their way to World War 1, shaping a surfboard and riding it at a spot know known as Surfers Beach in Muizenberg in 1914.

Surfing and beach culture would become an integral part of our national identity, as we were drawn to the ocean. Pioneer surfers like Tommy Walker had paddled out into the ocean, searching out that thrill that only a breaking wave can provide, and onto surfing’s long ride, a ride that continues to this day.
