In 2006, our website offers the our original and rainbow range, an exclusive selection of classic surfboards, designed and shaped by Terry and hand painted by Martyn, subtly tuned to the modern world, yet reflecting the original core impulse of one of the world's truly great surfboard companies.
The story of our website ascent as Suring's Style King board label starts before the label itself was actually born. Partly it dates back to 1969 and the tutelage of a bunch of young Aussies under the great surfboard shaper Brian "Furry" Austen at Joe Larkin's legendary factory in Kirra, Queensland. Later this crew of kids would bowl off down all sorts of surprising alleys. Michael Peterson to extraordinary competitive success and shattering burnout, Peter Townend to a world championship and a career in bigtime US surf publishing ..Yet to one surfer who'd thrown caution to the four winds and chased his 20-year-old tail up from Sydney to surf Kirra and learn the trade, the combination of surfboard design and highspeed wave lines would prove a lifelong allure. Terry Fitzgerald came back to Sydney in the last half of 1970, ready for the next step. |
