Autorenporträt
Thomas Hickenbottom is a fourth-generation central coast native and a surfer for over 50 years in Santa Cruz. He began wave riding back in the balsa era of the late 1950s. During the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s, Hickenbottom represented the Santa Cruz surfing community in contests up and down the California coast. He is also a member of the Santa Cruz Surfing Club Preservation Society, the Santa Cruz Longboard Union, and is actively involved with the Santa Cruz Surfing Museum, which also added a great deal of energy and historical information to the formation of this book.
