it was a buzz to hear from you kellie,Toby was a great bloke and a fantastic shaper that always made boards with passion and skill.
a smile grows on my face everytime i think of him, we all loved him.
i dont have many photos of him but one of the boys had a kick arse photo of him in a stand up Burleigh barrel, i will try my hardest to get you and your brother some photos of some of his boards or some boards, like i said in the email scott still has one of his boards in good condition and i will ask Laurie H
if he still has some of Toby's boards as Glen worked for him + try giving terry Vosper a ring on the goldie as you know he shaped for terry as well.


early days having a beer and a laugh at an EP board riders cricket match I'm on the right next to toby, scott is on the far left.



and a Glen Jones custom he made me in the early 80s when working for H




say Gday to mum

they get like that when im having fun

i received an email from this young las asking for help with some info, im just trying to help her.
i didn't think anyone read this sh!t

Enjoy those old pics. Seen a few of those brick wall twinnies over the years too and you 're drinking Fosters as well.

This is awesome! Thank you so much, means the world to us! I soo appreciate anything you find, Bodie will be over the moon when he sees this, especially a photo of his dad in a barrel!!! To be honest, I am looking for anything, even beat up, broken and battered boards, they all tell a story ....

I have attached a photo of Bodie (I think), looks like his dad!

PS. hehehehe nice nipples!

yep he looks like his dad you are both good looking must take after mum hey
showed the boys the photo and they all say the same.
look I'm getting some real positive stuff about photos and boards im not promising anything just yet just give me some time.

if anyone out there that has something PM me or if you just want to PM Kel try GTJBoards all info will be kept private.

good luck Kel

We want to know if Bodie still dose the bum shuffle that was so funny

Thanks Weiry, your a legend!! Anything helps, I know that I am in for the long hall to try find some of this stuff!! Keep me updated on any progress... in the meantime I am still casting the net out there in a few areas... I will let you know if anything else arises!

Mum says a big hi as well!! She is really excited that we have been in contact...

Hilarious!!! I mean, what was with that! The bum shuffle...hehehehe, I cant say he does it anymore however, a few other interesting habits have formed over the years......

cheers!!!

Good News Kellie

i have two boards for Bodie made by his dad sitting at my place
Donated by Scott Smith and his Brother Keith"Zac"Smith.
(who would love to see you Bodie and mum)
it wasn't hard persuading the boys to part with them once they knew who
it was for.
They kept the boards for sentimental Reasons and were stoked to see
Tobes son get them.
one board is getting on and the other is in good condition and would look great
on a wall.both custom boards one made for Zac and the other made for Richo.
Also have some photos i will get copied as the boys don't want to part with them
and fair enough.(i wont post on line its not my place to)
i will post some picks of the boards so get in touch with me about pickup.

i hope it puts a smile on Bodies face,My work is done
Cheers
Weiry
