Eric is one of the original modders and made a lot of crazy throws out of wood. He even did a wood 888.

He used to judge the world mod contest

His stuff shows up on eBay and the bst rarely and always goes for a decent chunk.

I can’t remember the name right now but there was another guy that used to make wood freehand as well.
