    I don't know which is funnier: Roy jerking off the hermaphrodite statue, or longingly staring at the yard troll's backside.

    Enough with claiming there is ANY level of performance with these boards. They are impressively put together and I compliment you for that cause I know it's not easy. You get your craftsmanship award, and kudos to you for exploring different avenues of design and theory but c'mon, the vids don't lie, they are huge, slow, unresponsive tankers. They're "enhanced" longboards for a long slow straight ride, just like all your vids. Call it how it is and people wont give you such a hard time.

    That was beautiful and 100% correct but the Gnomes response will be to tell you that you are wrong, that the "industry" has corrupted you and that his boards are cutting edge. A4B hit the nail on the head Roy, videos don't lie.

    And yes if Roy did call it like it is, not have such a huge fuking head to think his crap is worth more than a house, and be able to take ANY criticism on his boards then he would not catch any sh!t. I have said dozens of times I think the boards are beautiful and show very nice craftsmanship but given Roy's attitude, denial of the holocaust and his political thoughts on America, I'd just as soon he get raped and murdered by some psychopath.

    There are two schemes used... ocean colours and black and white.

    They are fast and responsive, actually.

    I got to say, from what Iv seen of Roy riding his boards on YouTube, he deffinitly gets some speed on those things. I haven't seen much responsiveness though. This is why I asked for video. Compared to Roy I know close to nothing about board building so I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt some what. I can't imagine those boards being very responsive but what do I know? That's why I'm ready to see via moving pictures

    Responsiveness isn't necessarily about doing big hacks and other tricks.

    What is responsiveness then if not being able to change directions for a big turn/hack/air or able to adjust at mach 10 in the tube? Is it being able to slip little wiggly turns to adjust trim on the face of a stomach high peeler like in your vids?

    Face it man All4 Blues got your number. He called you out for what your boards really are.

    I get that. I ride both long and short boards. Trust me, when you say responsive I don't expect these boards to do big hacks.

    To me responsiveness in a surfboard is when a board acts (responds) to the riders input. Examples being acceleration/deceleration/turns. Like I said I don't expect big hacks, but I do expect something turn wise. In my opinion you got the acceleration part of responsiveness down, which is another reason why I asked for video of big waves where big turns are less applicable but speeds still important

    Post deleted + an infraction for posting Roy and his lawn ornaments.

    How about you get an infraction log boy Roy, for consistently using Swell Info to push your clunky canoes, described as surfboards?
