Description
Huntington Pier, Huntington Beach, CA. A nice swell brought out the pack, among which included legendary Rockin’ Fig seen here carving out another ride ...
Sadly, Fig passed 07/21.
From LATimes 8-2-21:
Rick “Rockin’ Fig” Fignetti, the Huntington Beach surfing celebrity who died July 16 of a heart attack.
A paddle out organized by Huntington Surf and Sport owner Aaron Pai and Fignetti’s good friend Don Ramsey is scheduled for Aug. 28. The paddle out to honor Fignetti, who was 64, will be at 9 a.m. at the north side of the Huntington Beach Pier. It will be followed by a celebration with live music at Pier Plaza from noon to 4 p.m.
There also may be a “Rockin’ Fig Day” each year in Surf City. A Huntington Beach City Council agenda item up for consideration at Tuesday night’s meeting would establish a day named in honor of Fignetti annually each Saturday of the Surf City Days event.
