The Faces behind Stonker
Welcome to Stonker.
We’re Ben and Jess. The proud owners of our small business run in Torquay, the Surf Coast in Victoria.
Ben is an all rounder in Foil, SUP and Kiteboarding. His love for all three water sports will keep him on the water 365 days a year. He is a certified SUP instructor and our resident Wing Foil Instructor.
He is the heartbeat of Stonker and is here for all your hard thought out questions and queries.
Jess is a Personal Trainer and a SUP fan! You can find her on the water paddling around with the kids.
Her specialty is helping customers find their new equipment and get in shape to use it. Whether returning from an injury or starting out in water sports, Jess will get you started.
We took over the business in May 2022 from legendary SUP and Kiteboard Shaper, Alex Gillan. The business has been running now for 28 years. (see picture below on settlement day)
We're committed to assisting you in finding the perfect gear, backed by top-notch service.
We're available to chat in store, online or over the phone.
Better yet, you might spot the Stonker van down at the local beach. Where Ben is sure to be trying out some new gear.
