Grant it, it has its place but it shouldn't be the whole context of why you ride a longboard. If you look at the fluid connecting of turns & cutbacks, drop knee turns, on rail ala Phil Edwrads, Midget Farrelly, Mike Hynson, Nat Young, Dora, Barry Kanaiapuni, Jay Riddle, early day Bobby Patterson, Cooper, Peck and others..... there was a far more pleasing balance and relationship to harmonzing whilesurfing a wave than when we got OCD w/Nuuhiwa's up front antics........ even tho his weighting & unweighting w/feline grace was both beautiful & impressive. Billy Hamilton's cutbacks, Cowboy Henderson's parallel stance shuffles....... Click to expand... Agreed. |
