Three-time international surf champ Corky Carroll answers your questions each week on the Beach Blog. To hit him up, e-mail corkysurf@aol.com.  Here’s what readers asked him this week:

Q.  Do they still make Bing Surfboards?

A.  You can still get a Bing board, yes.  Check out www.bingsurf.com for information.  Also there is a great book out about Bing Copeland and all the years of making Bing Surfboards.  Its very cool and worth getting, especially if you are looking to get a Bing Surfboard.

Q.  I loved your story about Doheny State Park in the ’60’s.  What ever became of Joey Hamasaki?  She was surf a beautiful surfer.

A.  Thanks, that was a great time at a great spot.  I don’t know what happened to Joey, I wish I did.  If anybody knows please let me know ok.  We found Joe Quigg this way, so if you know anything about Joey Hamasaki email me at corkysurf@aol.com

Q.  I see where Brett Simpson is the son of former Los Angeles Rams football player Bill Simpson.  That was before my time.  Can you tell me when he played for the Rams?

A.  1974 to 1982.  He was a great player.  I used to be a huge Rams fan until they broke my heart and moved to Saint Louis.  His son is on his way to super-stardom as a surfer.  The Lakers better never move or I will have to walk off a cliff.
