Here's one of those lovely bits of internet functionality happening. I've been linked to the December Snowskates blog for a bit as Kevin from December has been doing some really cool stuff. He's been handcrafting these bindingless snowskates for a while, and he loves to surf so it seems natural he'd be enthused by a lot of what's been going on in surfing with the alaias (he's built a decent quiver including one that's hopefully going to develop into a board that can be ridden snow, surf and skate style!) With the snow/surf crossover he's very aware of the Mackie/Winterstick/Taro Tamai program, and that has led him to what we're doing here, and it's been great seeing what he's been up to and sharing our new projects with someone as stoked as he is. Then this week I find a box containing the above board in my PO Box. 27" x 7" hand crafted asymmetrical skate deck. Utterly beautiful piece of work gifted from December Snowskates. I'm still tripping on how fantastically cool it is, and my daughter immediately named it Mr. Freedom which works for me. This is definitely what makes all this nonsense so worthwhile- a piece of hand crafted beauty.

That there makes more sense to me than any vessel I've seen in my life. Stopped me there stil, n' gave me the shivers. Damn this Viagra spam is killing me.

That isn't the title sequence from Mr. Freedom. The description of the video is in portuguese and says that the video was made for a multimedia college class in which the students had to create a title sequence based on a movie of their choice.
Oh, nice board, by the way :)
