What a tragedy ! Condolences to family and friends. Does anyone know what happened ?. I was at Narromine (Natfly) some years ago and saw Wayne demo a Drifter.

I spoke with Wayne a couple of times on the phone when he made the skins for my Thruster.

 

He seemed like a quietly spoken, genuine nice guy.

 

RIP Wayne.
