Description
Jamie Budge screened his surf film "The Living Curl" at the Santa Cruz Civic Auditorium, 307 Church Street, Santa Cruz, CA. When the projector broke, Jamie fixed it with three red rubber band. After the show, Jamie taped the rubber bands to this poster as a souvenir. (They have since mostly disintegrated.)
The poster features three surfers:
Meringue Keru at the Tijuana Slough
Donald Takayama at the Oceanside Invitational Pro Surf Contest
Mark Martinson at the Oceanside Invitational Pro Surf Contest
The description says,
"The Living Curl is for hotdogging. It shows best the outstanding ability of the California surfer. It is good for top turns, cutbacks, head-dips, nose rides, left slides, and curl rides. It is good for anyone. It is in color. It is worth seeing. The Living Curl is a new movie from a new photographer and contest-winning surfer Jamie Budge. His movie is for the audience he’s part of, the California surfer."
Start time was 7:00 p.m. Admission was $1.50. After the movie, there was a dance with a separate admission.
