too bad i don't have any pics, but i think that Toby and Dimitry are the best old schoolers.
you can see Toby "not landing any tricks" here:


i can't find one of Dimitri's best videos from 2004 or 2005, so here is a different one from 2004:

He mixes styles, so he also has his own style.
I don't want to unhook, it is not my style, so if you like unhooking, Dimitri will always lead 1:0 !
And that is fine with me!
And wait for my new video, than I will take the 0:1 and turn it...with moves, no one did ever before!

CU!

clunk: me too ;-)

Toby, thanks for the tip on the micro hook!!! (what a cool device). I'm just getting the hang of it. Any way you know of to hook the gopro into the lines? I would love to get some pic's and post. Mine are no where close to the shit you'll pulling but board in lap is next! lol

Have a good one

Oh 75-80k on a 14m Rebel works great the guys on the beach think I'm F'n nut's launching a 14m in 20+ kns lol

sounds like good air for you with the 14 ;-)

I found the Select too light for board spins, but if you don't do those, it will be a nice, light board to take off. Just please sand those fins down, or you will get hurt...

Enjoy!

that's what it is about...inspirations!
That's why I want to see pictures from others as well to get inspired about new tricks!

Some people like Toby's moves and some people don't. Truth is that some of his moves are pretty damn hard to acomplish.

come on, a triple rotation off axis board varial with downlooped 16 at landing is not THAT hard!
the airpass is much harder! :naughty:

and the airpass does not look gay! :kiss:

have fun, whatever you do, and let others have their fun too! :remybussi:

nice pics!
this micro hook thing is quite dangerous if you don't know your way with it.
reminds me of the loops we had on the bar back in the early days.
