Like them or loathe them the Fletcher family have had a massive affect on the surf/skate continuum. Grandad and great uncle charged big waves in the 40s and fifties. Herbie did pipeline in the 70s and is a great longboarder to this day. He is in the earliest photo I have seen of someone skating a pool (on clay wheels).Christian is a good skater and helped elevate aerial surfing to where it is today, albeit with some dubious style.his brother is a big wave charger and his son appaers to be a good skater.
