Hal Jepsen's coverage of the 1971 Expression Session. This was a surfing showcase event without judges, scores, winners, or losers, featuring a select group of the world's best surfers. The Expression Session was presented as a soulful "anticontest" alternative to the standard surf meet. With the opening round was held in beautiful 10-foot surf at Pipeline, and the second round was held at Sunset Beach. Gerry Lopez, Owl Chapman, Sam Hawk and Jeff Hakman were among the standouts.
