1971 Cottesloe surfer Max Hickson with his VW beetle and Jacko twin fin surfboards at Margaret River. Max was a talented surfer and made a name for himself surfing Margaret River in the late 1960s and early 70s before heading to England to live. In 1979 Max was flown back to Australia from England to appear as a special guest on Ian ‘Kanga’ Cairns ‘This is Your Life‘ TV show. Arty Sherburn and Barry Day were also Kanga’s guests on the top rating TV program presented by Roger Climpson. Image courtesy of Brian Trainer.
***Update 26 August 2019*** Max is sitting on the bumper of Gavin McCaughey’s VW with Gav’s Cordingley twin fin on the roof. Gavin McCaughey took the pic…..thanks Gav for clarifying this matter!
1970 Max Hickson came second to Ian Cairns in the Junior Division of the State Surfing Titles held at Margaret River. Image credit Ric Chan.
