matty hooker’s lost tapes.
featuring: cale nuske, chima ferguson, jake duncombe, jon lorcan and luke croker.
2007
in the midst of the noughties australia was relentlessly producing skateboarders of a top international calibre. by 2007 it was literally impossible to pick up an american mag and not see a fresh up and coming aussie (or a current antipodean great) terminating a spot. 2007 was also quite an emotional year for us all as we lost two of our most talented sons: ben pappas and shane cross. in a clearly successful attempt to boost morale, get clips and celebrate life, towards the latter part of the year some of shane’s closest friends jumped in a van and headed up the eastern seaboard. they journeyed from canberra up to the goldy. aside from the rippers mentioned above, you may spy some cameos from su young choi, sammy winter, andrew peters, jim fowlie and assorted other rulers. some of choi’s angles of this footage saw the light of day, but hookso’s slipped to the back of the minidv draw and became the latest in our series of relocated lost tapes.
