    Peter crawford PC and his famous crozier Slab knee board design

    Little Avalon New South Wales
    Australia

    "PC at Little Avalon in 1978 carrying his board with a leg rope shoulder sling.

    The hands free board carry made it much easier to negotiate the steep LA track with camera gear, flippers, etc.

    (It was a DY kneelo thing- a plug in the boards nose to facilitate the sling and presto- you could ride your pushie with a 24” wide kneeboard)

    PC came north to LA only occasionally…intending to photograph, but only when it got really good.

    Because of that he rarely surfed but on those occasions when the waves were not quite as good as expected, we had that rare privilege of seeing him surf our wave.

    His approach was much more high performance than the locals, still getting tubes but belting the lip too.

    He seemed to be going 1/3 faster than everyone else!" - Simon Chipper

    Northern Beaches NSW

    I asked Mr. Rabbit Bartholomew whether he was judging in this photo and for this event his response was.

    Competitors signing waivers or media releases. I have never judged in my life. Peter  was renowned for pushing the boundaries in photography capturing unique moments and emotions to what may seem normal at the time Peter could see the art in these moment

    The technique used was he obtained different types of filters on his lens to direct certain colours of the spectrum to allow them to be recorded onto the Film. Peter would either use single colour double or triple coloured filters

    Just genius indeed!
