...Late in the Day
Yikes, I haven't been here for a LONG time. Nor hardly anywhere else online. I guess that I needed to take a break, since I did.
About all I've done online is some work and a bit of playing around. It doesn't help that so often lately I've been having breakthrough pain, especially in my back and shoulders. And I don't have meds strong enough for that.
Man, whoever is against human cloning, geez, if I could grow parts of me, I'd want to trade out for new shoulders RIGHT NOW!!
...some sort of combination connection sort of between a screw-on and a camera-lens bayonet mount might be useful.
Like I used to have surfboard fins in different sizes and shapes, for different waves. Including a couple that I sanded down. Mostly Brewer-shape fins :) ==Dick Brewer was definitely a spiritual person, complete with the Glow. I never spoke with him but he was the only other person besides me and a friend at a surf flick during Easter of '68 at Port Isabel. Sitting on his chair like a bird, looking as serene as anyone I've ever seen)
Anyway, changing the fin position makes the board have REALLY different characteristics, especially in turns and speed. Further noseward = more easily turnable, though with less force; further back lets you take more juice from the wave, and REALLY crank off a bottom turn or series of S-turns. And goes FASTER! Just my speed, even in Texas :D
(REALLY neat was when I had boards that I could knock the fin out while in the water, and move it further up or further back on the tail...WHEEEE!! :) )
