Cinnamon Rainbows
Todd Walker's Cinnamom Rainbows still thrives on today in it newer location in Rye, NH and the original just before the Orleans rotary on 6A lives on as the Pump House today. In the 80's, Rainbows was my place to get boards and Todd had them. We were part of a longboard club staying true to the Soul surfer syle of cruising lonboards versus the short boards eveyone was getting one in the 80's. I bought my second Dewey Weber from Todd and gained lots of knowledge about becoming a surfer. Todd had acutally been a DY grad and ran track for Coach Alan Carlsen. He knew who I was from our state championship Cross Country teams just a few years after his graduation. He told me great stories of how Carlsen would tie a rope to them and pull then with his car to go faster. Todd sold the business just when my wife Marie and I were running a cottage colony and regrettfully didn't get to say goodbye. Before it was Cinnamon Rainbows is was Surf City owned by I have one of his original boards the Blue Machine
