I don’t remember the names of most of them. I was pretty small. The rabbit movie had Dr. McCoy from Star Trek in it. Funny how your memory works or doesn’t work. I have this memory of the Crawling Eye from my childhood. The little boy chasing the ball into the room and the Eye’s tenticles feeling around for him. Only, my memory was the ball was the eye and it scared the shit out of me then. Until I saw the movie as an adult a couple of years ago and realized it was just a ball. Laughed my head off. My brothers and I watched all this junk and subsribed to Monster Magazine. I’d have nightmares of the Wolfman or the Mummy trying to get into the house. You know,“shit! did I lock the back door?” Run!!! Mike
Oddovon is a person who has been a major figure in the surfboard manufact. industry for 17 years, from southern california, now residing on the goldcoast of oz. And of course robin would not know me, like other overnight sensations. Not to knock anyone but I have turned my back on my craft due to the exploitation it has received over the last decade. I came across robin’s profile on rvca website, and it amazes me how the now gets all this acredit and attention for what others have created before. The whole retro soul movement has been reinvented time and time again. In my personal opinion progression is the inspirational theories of the future. I guess to me to promote yourself as this timeless classic craftsman, it takes alot more than inheriting your oldmans surf mags and travel stories but create your own, but I guess if you have major labels making you a false idol overnight who wouldn’t oblige. Sorry to ruffle any feathers.
So… Oddovon,
What brings you to Sway’s and why would Robin Keagal ruffle your feather’s?
Now a days (unlike in the beginning) The shaker’s and mover’s (purse strings) of the surf industry pretty much promote whomever they choose. pay for all the Photo shoots and all that blah…blah…
ie: suck ass’s and their P.A.L.'s
but you already know that
Whats the beef ?
Saw this late one night when I was about 6. Scared the crap outta me!
g
thank God for salt water
Just letting a little steam off thats all no disrespect to anyone just letting a few know where they really stand amongst us real craftsman, good on robin though.
Some people are just lucky
In my opinion , one should at least pay your dues before the promotion comes
as long as they keep their feet on the ground and be humble
well spoken words mate. Have a good new year.
same to you and your family
and God bless
