  2. Does the name Danny Kim ring a bell with anyone out there? Might have to dust of the old body board.

  4. this is cool and looks fun. i am in the same boat, whats really the big deal when a dude like danny kim was doing this on a boog years ago? why not just do it on a boogie?

    do you think the whole finless movement would be getting as much attention if burchy was doing this on a sponge? just a thought...

  5. the interesting thing are the tests done
    in 1945...see book page post.
    this is a basic planing form.
    i interviewed Morey and asked him
    if he had seen the book, he had not.
    so, we are exploring a form straight
    out of the book from '45, a book
    Simmons used to design his boards.
    So...thats were the context of this falls.
    its not about who rips hardest standing
    on a "boog"...its not about ripping hard at all,
    in fact. comprendes?
