Bodyboarder, Diarmid Heidenrich, who plays crooked policeman Eddie "Parrot" Gould in the latest Underbelly went on the tour for the TV show GETAWAY to add some inside goss. He said his character was someone arrogant and power hungry and stopped at nothing to get whatever he wanted.

 

He is repping a nice No.6 t-shirt in the interview.

Tully re-enters the shaping bay.

For some time now there has been whispers emanating from the western seaboard of Australia that Dave ‘Tully’ Tulloch had re-entered the shaping bay and was working in secret on the relaunch of his successful custom label Funkshen Bodyboards.
 
Tully fills us in after Funkshens 12 month hiatus.

The last few years I was continually challenged on the business side of things. My focus had always been on the quality of my shaping skills and how the Funkshen boards were coming out. The feedback from all our riders and customers ensured the quality of our boards was often described as the best in the industry. But unfortunately as our boards were progressing, our business network was failing. Funkshen was at the crossroads on whether we could take it to the next level. This combination of issues led me to think that taking a forced break would be best for the business and for my own personal wellbeing, not that I was ever happy with that decision.
