thanks for showing me the way bill
my wife tells me im wrong all of the time
yep
roys my hero
(especially his organic surf wax recipie)
and he can call his boards whatever he likes
what he does is unusual and fun
you can make polite jokes about it if you like
but i think
your sense of humour is cruel
me defending roy, is not me attacking you.
you started it with a snide remark responding to epac(small v comment)
im simply giving it back
and you need not take everything i say so literally.
i guess sarcasm isnt as obvious when its written.
me comparing shortboards to longboards is no different
then you comparing your boards to roys
and is obviously a complete waste of time
(never have i read him calling your boards slow)
oh and whats this
its not just you on a roy bashing party
a few others jumped on the bandwagon as well
looks like a gang of bullies taking the piss
your gunna have to be a bit more subtle than that
if you wanna avoid arguments like this.
or do you enjoy it?
i certainly dont
and to be honest i cant see much difference between a solid balsa longboard (which you said you make)
and one of roys hollow woodens
your right about my inexperience however
im sure after x amount of years you have fully discovered the nuances and design principles of
a stick that floats
i think maybe your displaying the “arrogance of obsolesence”
right back at ya mate
ps im feeling very uncomfortable at this discusion and sign out of this thread.
and untill now i have recognised your experience and respected your knowledge.
thanks for the personal attack it really puts things in perspective.
please let it get back to roy showing pictures and colourful descriptions of his cool boards.
