"in everything, uniformity is undesirable.

leaving something incomplete makes it interesting, and it gives one the feeling that there is room for growth...even when building the imperial palace, they always leave one place unfinished."

speed dialers_14feb10

started back with my 5'10" quad with my original speed dialers.

finally got two waves where i really felt the benefit of them.

one frontside: carved off the top right into a round house in one fluid motion without losing speed. such a great feeling. the other was backside: late drop grabbed rail and could feel the fins actually lock in and start to drive. again, such a weird but cool feeling. not at all like this image, but sort of what it felt like to me...

some screen grabs from the quiksilver cypher phylm shot in hidef.

at first i really noticed the clarity of the film, then i just kept thinking to myself how little i like airs and reverses..

natural elements can't betray you.

Wide point a bit further forward with a bit more foam should help this one accelerate in the barrel.

Kind of ripped off/morphed a Gerry Lopez pipe gun from the 70's.

i don't know if it was really peter zumthor who counter-posted a response to a project posted on archdaily recently, but the link he mentioned is actually pretty interesting:
