True Roy.

30 odd of us Surfers and Shapers went on this thing, All got filmed, But it ended up becoming the DH and Richard show.

Pissing in each others pockets. :roll: :roll: :roll:

Trust me, The guy who made it (Great bloke) will never work with DH again.........

Sounds tooth gnashingly ghastly, what happened to the rest of the footage maybe you could release the unedited version. We had a similar experience with swell TV in New Zealand at the nationals Simon their cameraman welded himself on to us for days and filmed hours of footage of our Dragonboard saying that we were the only interesting thing there, the NZ Surfing management got hold of him and freaked him right out, that was that, the footage was binned and he refused to speak to us thereafter, the TV show was the Maz Quinn show when it came out and Maz wasn't even an entrant because of his WQS status :roll:

There's so much BS around I just rang TW on his cellphone hot under the beard after he wrote in his latest press release that it isn't possibe to make a flexible hollow wooden surfboard because the frames are too rigid and they crack. . .. we've only been making flexible hollow woodies since 1995 without any such crackery but wtf do we know the Good News Shmegener Bible says otherwise.

TW also stated that his new Tuna boards are the fastest boards in the world with nothing to back it up FFS no one calls BS on him ( except me ) , but when we diligently measured speed and reported the results without any such claim to be the fastest in the world I was attacked by vast posses of outraged morons who accused me of just about every sin in the known universe. The surf industry is extremely fucked up and Musica Surfica is the epitome of at least 5% of what's wrong with it.

I bought a copy of Sean Davey's book 'This is King Island' though it's nice apart from the shots of the backs of AK and DH's heads inside a car. At least I think it was DH they all look the same from the back, and I'm terrible with the names of artsy fartsy surfie bum chums.

It's gotta be chemical film though hey or it's just not real :roll:



:lol:

Try it yourself sometime mate, piloting a 70 pound 17 footer NEVER feels boring, there's just so much mass in motion !

Well I lost the 13'9" 70 pound Dragonboard at Raglan's Manu Bay during a cutback one triple overhead day and when I surfaced it was cartwheeling 20 feet in the air through the inside, does that count as punting ?

:D

Only if you landed it and said "yeeeeew, I'm frothing".

Apologies for the interruption, back on topic.
