Surflegende Jack ONeill passed away

Survivor Jack O'Neill died at the age of 94.

O'Neill, who was at the base of the brand-name brand of surfactants, lived according to US media for surfing. He began to test over half a century ago clothes that would allow longer surfing sessions in the cold waters of northern California.

The invention of the neoprene wetsuits made O'Neill a legend among surfers. He reportedly received calls from all over the world of water sportsmen who wanted to win such a garment. The American surf shop eventually expanded into an internationally operating company.

O'Neill lived in Santa Cruz (California) in a house overlooking the ocean and within walking distance of a good surfing spot. He remained a familiar appearance locally, partly because of his eyelid. That's what he was wearing because of a surfing accident. He eventually died at home in the presence of his family.
