Harvey Zendt was among Avalon’s first generation of surfers in the early 1960s. In the late 1970s, he traveled the world and surfed some of the greatest waves. His recent book, “The Gift of Experience: Remarkable Encounters and Misadventures in the Global Pursuit of Waves,” discusses those adventures. In this talk, Zendt will share stories from Avalon’s early surfing days and his travels, including an excerpt from the book.
