the end of outrageous

pretty soon anybody doing anything in EPS will no longer be “cool” or “fringe”

Hey man, if this guy can change his tune, anybody can.

even the stalwarts are broadening their horizons. Clark closing is like every single shaper doing a hit of acid and seeing what the world has to offer…it’s like the 70’s all over again! Bring on the Trans Ams!

Soulshaping takes a back seat to survival.

DP’s always got interesting things to say eh?

I hope he survives.

I remember lots of people (including myself) wondered about Dave P’s take on the matter.

It’s funny, he covers lots of topics that I read about IN sways way before the BLack Mon incident . . . about ininformed people taking the fight of poop vs epsoxy, greeness, engineering principles, etc . . . Even covers the latest China copying abilities . . .

wow.

A very clear and realistic essay. DP makes a deep analisys of the situation after Clark’s closure and contextualizes it from the past, present, and future of the boardbuilding history. Simply amazing.
