Beschreibung | Geoffrey Seddon Walker (21 July 1952 – 18 October 1997) was a New Zealand canoeist who competed at the 1980 Summer Olympics. He partnered Alan Thompson in the K2 500 metres and K-2 1000 metres events, reaching the semi-finals of the former and finishing eighth in the final of the latter. He first represented New Zealand in swimming, but narrowly missed selection for the 1970 Commonwealth Games in Edinburgh. Then he became one of New Zealand's top surf lifesavers, and the New Zealand surf ski champion six times between 1974 and 1988. |
