Darryl Bulger

Steve 'Blackie' Wilson

This entry suggested by email from Darren Volker, who wrote in March 2008 (edited):
"Darryl Bulger worked at Darby and Local Knowledge and shaped my boards for many years before I headed overseas for 20 years.
He was shaping for his own company, Islander (A)Classic, in a shed at the back of Currumbin.
They were hot boards and went like rockets at Uluwatu.

Island Designs-Rip Curl decal previously in the Islands Surfboards entry, above.
This was adjusted after the following note in October, 2016:
Nothing to do with Island surfboards I'm afraid.
Rip curl store early 70's KKK shaped a few but to cold for the QLanders Russell Francis kept it going with x shapes from Rooster + Richard Evans .

Amberglow, Dick Van, T+C, Island, Islantis, JBay, Beach Street, Etc
Getting old .....better stop reminiscing.

Hopefully a few more blanks filled.

Cheers - Russ

Mark Couston

Mark Couston noted in January 2016:.
I started making boards for myself because I couldn’t afford my hunger for new boards.
Then made boards for my mates and it grew from there. S
Seeing the first Bonza’s in magazines, I had to have (make) one, then made a few more on request.
The long side fins were cut from an old fiberglass Mal fin because I couldn’t buy them from Dion Chemicals at the time.
