Richo to launch his book in Cronulla

1st September - 2018

Terry Richardson Book Launch - Cronulla.

I
'm proud to announce that we in Cronulla are going to see and hear Terry 'Richo' Richardson talk about his new book after he returns from the WSL World Grand Masters Titles which is set to run September 18-23, 2018 on the Atlantic shores of São Miguel, Azores.



Richo’s career as a competitive surfer and professional shaper spans 50-years. From Michael Peterson to Kelly Slater, from single-fins to computerised shaping, from Aussie Pipe to Banzai, Richo has held his own. 


From the very start of pro surfing in 1976 to this year’s WSL World Masters Professional Surfing championship, Richo has surfed the eye of the cyclone.

He charged Hawaiian waves bigger than houses as a 17-year-old, redefined tube-riding at South Coast Pipe, and battled the ravenous pro circuit for 16-years.

Richo remains one of an elite band of surfer shapers who have surfed at the highest level and banked a lifetime of shaping experience, while remaining enduringly competitive.

On the night, the MC will be the book's author Rob Reynolds. There will be video on the big screen, chats with Richo, Q&As from the audience, book sales & signing and photo ops - so bring along your photographic device of choice.
