The Reohorns

Eddie and Fiona Reohorn first learnt about surfing from a visiting Australian lifeguard, around about 1956. They were working on the beach at Woolacombe at the time, and had never seen surfing there before. Around 1960 they heard about a board for sale down in Newquay and decided to club together and buy it.
