Corey Duffel is a popular skateboarder from Walnut Creek, California. He was born on April 11, 1984 as William Corey Duffel to Steve and Sharon. He is known for his fast-paced skating style, skating big gaps, rails, stairs, and any large obstacles like the freeway gap in Cataclysmic Abyss. His skating stance is Goofy.
Correy duffel never thought he was gay but some actual faggot got on this and said he did he has a girlfriend/wife. If you watch on fuel see him on american misfits where they kiss.
Duffel is sponsored by Foundation Skateboards, Osiris Shoes, Split Clothing, Venture Trucks, Mob Grip, Pig Wheels, Metro Skateboard Shop, Skullcandy headphones, and CCS Mailorder. and is also working with mentor Michael Davis' Music Is Revolution Foundation, raising money to support music education in public schools. Davis and Duffel have also collaborated on some fashion and skate items for Foundation. He has a tattoo of a spider on his back, which also appeared on one of his skateboard graphics.
Duffel earned much negative recognition for referring to fellow skateboarder Stevie Williams as a "trashy nigger" in an interview from Chris Nieratko. Duffel recanted the statement immediately, and had said throughout the interview he felt he was being manipulated by Nieratko to embarass himself. [1] The remark cost him many sponsors and he has since been "linked to Stevie Williams in a negative way." In a later interview with Thrasher Magazine Duffel expressed regret at his racist comments and the fact that he is always known for the racial slurs he made, also saying that he looked up to Williams from a young age.
