The Emmerton Solution

Hey T. By in large, this place is full of open minded traditionalists. That is we will discuss and argue about the merits of all kinds of things as long as a bit of form is followed. It may be too late, but to escape some (only some) of the ridicule I suggest the following: 1) Find or make one of your boards without the funky paint job. 2) Take three photos of it, one of the bottom (shoot vertically down on it, it is called a “plan view”, take another from the side (called a “side view” curiously enough) and then, maybe a inbetween view from another angle that shows off the complicated countours of the bottom. 3) Post them in the Resource Section like everyone else does. 4) Come back to the discussion section and tell every one how and why it performs better/different from a more “traditional” shape. 5) There are an awful lot of very knowledgable people here, so write about things you know, not things you think you know. Be honest. I am personally intrigued by what you’ve done. I have built a few whacky things back in the day so I can appreciate the thought and work you’ve put into the project. But, I really can’t even ask a proper question since I/we don’t have enough information except some one dimensional photos and a single, slightly incomprehensible testimonial. A little less enthusiasm and more facts would help…me, anyway.
