https://www.surfer.com/features/east-coast-legend-gary-propper-dies-at-age-72/ Bummer, He just came back to Cocoa Beach a few weeks ago. When I was first surfing in the late 60s early 70s he was exposing the rest of the world to east coast surfers.
Wow, I remember him well, mostly via Hobie Surfboards. He was the East Coast star during the years I lived in PR, made me aware that the East Coast had some good surf spots. RIP Gary
yup, dude's a legend. his name came up a bunch amongst the older crew's stories at the surf expo last year and propped up on my old surf youtube vidz many of times. rip
