Parker Coffin, illness after illness, Indo

Currently, photographer Thomas Carey accompanies a team of gents who ride for Volcom on a trip to North Sumatra. They are filming a Volcom movie and ad campaign. And, Parker Coffin, pictured here, is one of the surfers present on the trip. But so far, it hasn’t been the most productive trip for the kid. “Parker just came out of a five-day coma after contracting something,” says Tom. “Well, not an actual coma, but pretty much comatose. He has been fucked-up sick. But since he came good, he’s been surfing like it’s his last day on earth.”

See? There’s always light at the end o’ the tunnel.
