sweet and tender hooligan

c.1997 Rob Machado's got a magic fish. he brings it in to channel islands to get Al to copy it. Al copies it and Rob gets his new board. The original sits on the rack. 12 years pass before i come in looking for something fun to ride. it looks ugly. So much ding repair that it's changed the shape of the board. it's small and thin and heavy and brown. 5'8" X 18 1/2" X 2 1/4". I take it as a novelty. this video is from basically my first two sessions on it with some other junk scattered in between. from there i took it on several trips. one of my favorite boards ever. oddly enough the video 'quiche lorraine' posted earlier on this site was it's final session. the tail finally gave out.
