The Museum of British Surfing will open a new exhibition telling the history of surfers from all corners of the British Isles. “The First Wave” runs from March 22nd, 2014 to January 4th, 2015. Peter Robinson and the team behind the Museum of British Surfing have interviewed more than 100 British surfers. The exhibition includes rare film clips from pre-World War surfers like Pip Staffieri (1930s) and Harry Rochlin (1920s). “Share the stoke and salty tales from a life in the sea from the UK’s surfing pioneers. This display brings our surfing heritage to life,” says Peter Robinson, founder of the Museum of British Surfing.
