Fanga

Barry “Fanga” Tyte is a talented goofyfooter who is treated with plenty of respect down at The Alley. Fanga has been a dominant part of the Cronulla Boardriders Club since the earliest days. He was Open Club Champion in ’81  and over the next few years he was regularily involved in a 3 way tussle with Craig Naylor and Ross Marshall for top honors. Fanga was renown for disappearing to a  secret left reef long before word spread about its hollow barrels and got crowded. Fanga had it to himself for years. This pic of Fanga was from an article on Cronulla Boardriders Club in Tracks in ’83 taken by Peter Simmons.
