Big shout to Corker, the first kid in our neighbourhood to ride a long board, to go to Noosa, to run away from home (year 7!), to hitchhike to Perth. In the words of Neil Young, "Long may you run". At one stage Corker used to drive around in a big V8 Ford nicknamed "Big Henry". Also known to drive unregistered ride on mowers massive distances on country back roads to get to the pub!
Corker's last board, now ridden by another, a beautiful Matt Kean remake of a Ray Woosley shape - 9'6" heavy volan glass, monster hatchet fin glassed in. Happy Birthday, champ.
