4GB/hour of footage. I think most people could probably shell out 10 bucks for a 8 gb stick....I just bought 8 gb sticks for 20 bucks.


Hey McHenry, get your pimping **** together, give us a rundown on the equipment and don't be afraid to talk it up..

The reason i ask, does it have the time lapse photo thing where it takes photos every 5-10 seconds or whatever, cause as an idea, Crispy could set it up an time lapse photo as the board is shaped. We could even get Nick form surf cargo to stick it on his dash as he drives it down the coast as a history of the boards trip.



We are already on it, going to have a timelpase of the shaping progress, any ideas are awesome. I will start a thread of everything about the camera.

Well Chrispy and I met with Steve from CLEARWATER Surfboards and shared a few beers while Steve is putting the finishing touches to his super awesome new factory.

I've met Steve once before what a super bloke he is and he so stoked to be on board with this experiment.

Here are a few pictures,the factory will be ready to rock and roll in two weeks and THE EXPERIMENT BOARD will be one of the first to come out.

Note the board Chrispy is hugging well as all good surf chat and beers go I told Chrispy he should have a go on HP longboard around some Dims and Steve said,hang on I've got one here,take it for a burn,HOW GOOD is that.

It may be a good time to talk about the Beer garden run sheet, what do you think of this for a starter? Some points have already been suggested.

Opening Title

With the finished board unridden in the background

Commentary begins

While commentary is running, a series of stills or time-lapse or videos is running showing all the components arriving and being unwrapped- blank, camera, decals, fin etcetera.

Commentary starts, stating intent (if any) and then saying that a lot of people made it happen, then throwing to Chrispy on the beach with the waxed and ready board displaying all the sponsor decals.

Chrispy sheds some light on his idea, and says that he has no idea what's going to come back once the stik finishes its journey.
Thanks the supporter by name, then takes her out for its first surf.

The Middle Bit

I guess this is all up to us and whatever comes back, gives the flick its direction.

You could:

• Just surf it with the cam pointing front on
• Just surf it with the cam point backwards
• Just surf it with the cam point both ways
• Show us your secret spots
• Show us your not so secret spots
• Show us how your surf'n buddies ride
• Tell us about your mates
• Give the board to your buddy and let him show us how it's done
• Capture lots of images of Boobage
• Tell us what the stoke means to you
• Tell us about the environment
• Show us what you don't like (666ers)
• Show us what you do like (not 666ers)
• Capture lots of images of Boobage
• Drop your daks and give us a brown eye
• Just do any thing you like when you're surf'n, even if it just involves good coffee
• Try real hard not to snap it

This is not about pro surfers, we're just average Joe's, this is all about the journey, the boards journey and maybe our journey.

Q: - You said “Boobage” twice.

A: - I like Boobage

The End Bit

Well I guess that depends on a couple of things.

1/ What was in the middle bit
2/ If the board comes back home

If it comes home, we can probably document its last journey; that may be PNG but who knows!

We can never judge the middle bit, but we can try to say what it meant to us.

obct...that is your finest post. im glad you mentioned the average joes(me) because the whole idea really is why do we still surf(and that old people can still get **** done)
. now there is money that will be around, i think its even better that we can support the disabled surfers association. there will be a part filmed with those guys and hopefully one other gent.

obct we are going to make this board as near bullet proof as possible. evrything you posted i agree 100%. we should make this about the average joe, with some serious/good message in there. the bloopers will be kept for our eyes only

im also wanting to film a session with the crew and talk some talk while wetting our vocal chords.. remember boys alcohol/substances plus video camera makes great viewing.

ted i would be heaps keen to hook up with all you blokes for a surf. then someone can take it for a week or two?

obct is the man,outstanding work


Camera mounts we need two,one on the nose the other the tail.

Steve mentioned this because the nose rides will look awesome shot from the tail,now we just need someone to pull this off,me I'm going nose mount with the camera facing forward and I'm going Vert.Well that's my plan it could take a few takes tho

Yeah I agree on the tail mount, **** kicking my toes on that... And another rule no Crotch shots.

Great post OB as you said it is about the journey and just showing its fun to surf, although if someone is keen to get in a punch up in the water that's ok 2, whatever is your own style and dogs humping are always funny we should throw Some footage of that in, maybe Tassie could film various animals,, oh hang on were in fetish land

Chrispy once again thanks for all the stuff you've done and great idea getting a few charities involved, maybe another destination for the board could be as many disabled surfer meeting as we can get it to. And would be awesome if you could hand it over to the NSW crew in person.

All this "movie" talk got me thinking.......

So I had a chat to the guy who made ....Morning of the Earth,Crystal Voyager......

Now don't get excited I did not mention the project(I have very little cred as it is)

However if needed or if it seems like a good idea I could have another chat with him for some advice.......

3 inches thick should be good to take out the fishing gear and chase a few cocky salmon

Old mate in town has an old board he calls the floating boat . I think it is either 3 1/2 inches or 3 1/4 inches thick . Needs the floatation though he is a big boy .

Will be fun to try something different . Was thinking of getting a big log for the real small days .
