Just came out a week ago. I am gonna definitely check it out this week. If you snowboard, it's a must see! getting great reviews and just looks great... http://www.firstdescentmovie.com/ Watch the trailer all the way through... it's a big-screen, big-budget "documentary" about the sport with some INSANE snowboarding... no actors... the real deal... At the end of the trailer, you'll see a clip of Terje Haakonsen staring down an insane line where he kicks off an avalanche... rides his heart of trying to beat-out the avalanche!!! SICK!!!

Actually that's pretty funny... I went surfing after lunch on Wednesday and returned with wet hair and flip-flops... but thats not how I left for lunch. Definitely didn't slip by too many people! HA!

New Carbon Fiber Surfboards Hit Retail By Casey Koteen Posted 10.06.2005 It seems like new surfboard technologies are popping up more often than boardsports companies on the Nasdaq, especially in the last five to ten years. From Surftech and Salomon to XTR and a gaggle of emerging combinations of epoxy resins and lesser-known foams, surfboard manufacturers are bringing to market a wider variety of constructions than perhaps ever before. While surf shop goers may be getting slightly jaded with this barrage of new technology, there’s a new board technology that’s just hit retail that will likely give them a little shock--sticker shock. The boards are made by a manufacturing company called Aviso, and the price tag for a shortboard rings in at 1,100 dollars. Using a shaper/manufacturer relationship that’s similar to Surftech’s, Aviso makes the boards from molds created from plugs designed by a variety of shapers. As of now, the brand has twenty different models from shapers like Jeff “Doc” Lausch of Surf Prescriptions, Lost, Velzy, Cordell, and Don and Jeff Johnston. Great names, no doubt, and Aviso Owner and creator John Omohundro says more shapers are coming on board--but back to that price-tag issue. Many of the newer technologies have been steadily pushing the pricepoint envelope, but this one has blown the lid off. “I want them to be the highest-price boards around,” says Omohundro, who hopes they’ll set a new pricing standard. The shortboard models wholesale for 800 to 850 dollars--more than any other shortboard retails for. The costly construction isn’t entirely surprising given that the boards are made in the U.S.--a fact that Omohundro is proud of. They’re made in Minden, Nevada to be exact, where the family business has been engineering and manufacturing various parts for the aerospace and defense industries, and more recently has moved into making high-end sailboat masts out of carbon fiber. Both John and his dad also have backgrounds in making surfboards, so it was only a matter of time before they started mixing their passion for boards with their knowledge of carbon fiber, which is a main component of the Avisos. The outer layer of the boards is a cloth weave that you can actually see on the unpainted boards. Beneath that, depending on the board, is a variety of layers and orientations of uni-directional carbon fiber. And beneath that is, well, air. The boards have no core or stringer, they’re basically a carbon fiber shell held together with epoxy resin. The mix of carbon fiber and epoxy, says Omohundro, makes the boards much more durable than traditional boards, but not indestructible. Controlling flex seems to be on a lot of manufacturers’ minds these days and it’s a clear goal for the Aviso construction, too. The boards are engineered with different orientations and placements of the carbon fiber so that the designers have greater control over the flex characteristics. “There’s all sorts of dynamics going on when you don’t have a core,” says Omohundro, “there’s nothing tying the top to the bottom. The Avisos flex from nose to tail but the bottom, the actual rocker line, isn’t curving with the deck of the board. The bottom isn’t flexing and bending like the deck is, where on a poly board the top and bottom are tied together and when it flexes it can slow you down.” So, are consumers ready to shell out over a grand for a new technology? If sales of other new and expensive board constructions are any indication, it seems like people are at least open to the idea. “People are way more open-minded about molded boards and different construction techniques than ever before,” says “Doc” Lausch, who works with as many alternative board constructions as anyone. “People want a board that’s going to last and they’re willing to spend a little more money to have that.” “Surfing is really behind in its understanding of advanced materials,” says Omohundro. “I’m not saying I’ve got the Holy Grail, it’s just that the materials we’re using are further ahead and more expensive than materials previously used.” While the traditional polyurethane/polyester combination still makes up the majority of boards made and sold, for good or bad it’s clear that alternative constructions and materials are getting more R&D than ever before.

Thank God I just bought a new board about a month ago... Those new carbon-fiber boards are starting to sell... can't quite do it... $1000-$1250 is steep... it will eaither revolutionize the industry or fade out real quick! Clark Foam getting shut down is horrible news... like you said, they are IT when it comes to what they do. Bad news... Good news is that I was surfing the outside at Palmetto this morning and had a blast!

You wear guilt Like shackles on your feet Like a halo in reverse I can feel The discomfort in your seat And in your head it's worse There's a pain A famine in your heart An aching to be free Can't you see All love's luxuries Are here for you and me And when our worlds they fall apart When the walls come tumbling in Though we may deserve it It will be worth it Bring your chains Your lips of tragedy And fall into my arms And when our worlds they fall apart When the walls come tumbling in Though we may deserve it It will be worth it DM ~ "Halo"

And she still makes my heart go a-pitter-patter-a-pitter-patter
