Corey Duffel is a skater 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, riding big wall ride gaps, and any large obstacles like the freeway gap in Cataclysmic Abyss. His skating stance is Goofy. Duffel still rides for his shop sponsor, Metro, in his hometown.^{[citation needed]}

Duffel has been skating since age ten, and turned pro at age eighteen. His favorite trick is to ollie and bomb big hills. Duffel also said he always puts a silver screw on the top right corner of the screws holding in his trucks on his skateboard. Some of his career highlights are just getting to ride a skateboard with his friends.

Duffel's sponsors include Foundation Skateboards, Osiris Shoes, Ambiguous Clothing, Venture Trucks, Mob Grip, Pig Wheels, Metro Skateboard Shop, Armourdillo. CCS magazine, Skullcandy headphones, and most recently Swiss Bearings.^{[citation needed]}

Duffel 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. He also has tattoos of his dogs’ names on his arm in a heart with a dagger, and his 7th Seal deck on his rib which features the Grim Reaper playing chess. In an interview in Transworld Magazine, Corey describes it as a battle between him and the reaper. However, in the tattoo, his king has been knocked over. He also sports a 45 record logo on his chest. Corey Duffel Has 2 Pro Model Shoes On Osiris Footwear which are The Duffel and The Corpse.^[1]
