"Published in Surfer in 1967, this instantly infamous cover story of mine caused an unprecedented response with letters from readers lasting for a year. I was described as a “poor representative”, “demented”, a “loud-mouthed, coat-tail riding self-styled oracle” and it was suggested that I’d “irreparably damaged the esteem in which Australian surfing is held”. Nick Carroll would (much) later refer to it as ‘splendidly inflammatory’." - John Witzig
