Damon has written to share his collection of Hot Stuffs. There is more than a dozen here by my count.
He writes "This is the Rabbit section of the Hot Stuff collection. Left to right is a Neil Purchase shaped 6ft thruster. A single fin channel bottom, shaped by Al Bryne. A single fin with smaller side fins, shaper unknown. A channel bottom thruster shaped by NP. A thruster shaped by unknown and a later Rabbit thruster shaped by NP"
A Ben Apia / Dick Brewer influenced widow maker set up.
Gary Elkerton on Hot Stuff Kong model 1983
An interesting Kong model Bryne. I'm not sure how this piece fits into the puzzle. According the Gary's autobiography he rode Mick Hopper shaped boards from Maroochydore, Hot Stuffs from Kirra then Mt Woodgees from Mt Woodgee.
It looks like we have only seen the tip of the iceberg.
