When I was growing up I loved
surfing. Surprisingly there were some options in Arizona, there used to be a
water park outside of Tucson (for the life of me I cannot remember the name and
I am not sure if it is still around) that offered surfing times, so I got in
practice. As I hit my teens, I would spend spring breaks and summers in
southern California hitting places like Redondo Beach and Manhattan Beach.
Those days are long gone but
it is still nice to reminisce and while surfing cards are not common anymore,
Upper Deck makes sure to get some surfers in their annual Goodwin Champions
set, finding an old gem is nice.
This Matt Archbold hologram
from the 1992 Beach Sports set was a nice find. It kind of re-invigorated me
and I picked up a couple of surfers autographs and relics in my recent COMC
order that puts me on the road of a mini-PC. I am not sure how I want to
organize it yet and I haven’t made a wants list, but I have plenty of time for
that.
