I think your opinions are pretty clear on Roy's threads.. Interested but a rude prick...
I'd assume most of the longer serving members remember the **** fight reds can cause so wouldn't give to many...
I red your post (no punt) intended I don't use the thumbs but thought it best I put it out there as I was one who should have shut my month along the way in that thread.
Roy has made it quite clear that you can get updates from his blog and if you don't read it your an incompetent nancy...at least I think that was what he said...I am fatigued after 14 pages and I still haven't seen him do a proper cut back

I agree. I was interested in his ideas and how the board turned out. If there was only one design that worked then we would all ride one board. Maybe his stuff did things others didn't want in a board, but equally, perhaps his designs work well in some conditions for some surfers.
wavelength said... Looking back over this thread I can’t see where Roy has bagged anyone who hasn’t first had a go at him. If he's criticised, he responds, which seems fair enough. If his theories are challenged in an open-minded, genuinely curious way, he provides interesting answers. I find Roy's projects and views on board design interesting and I’d like to see his updates continue in this forum.
I agree.
Personally, I think Roy had a go at people having a go at him. When I asked critical questions he replied in a reasoned and polite manner. If you don't like his ideas, don't read the thread.
Come back Roy! Ignore the haters. Left to their own devices their would be only 5-10 posters allowed in this whole room.

Dear Roy Stewart,please except my humble apologies for being a smart ar-se and lack of respect. Your right I'm just a chest beater who is an unimportant know body.
Now thats out of the way would you be kind enough to finish what you started as there are a few who are interested.
And suddenly the green room seems as desperate as a fat chick on prom night. Let him go fellas...Mac Roy said he is "really busy, too busy to respond to drab f*cks like you." (Ie he's busy updating his free advertising on other sites)

My idea was,I was hoping he may check in and read my post.

Maybe he needs to pay someone else to spruke his brand on a public forum. Apparently its bad form to do it for yourself, but if you get an "independant" view, all is forgiven

Ok due to popular demand I'll keep you fellows in the loop. It's going to be a long thread because the project is going to produce a long line of boards.
Heckling is ok and negative comments about the design as well, I just get bored with the personal stuff. Thanks for the epic grovel Macaha, it's nearly as bad as the snide stuff, well done.
It was stated earlier that the shape I'm doing at present will be 'good for cruising but not much else'... that is 100% correct the shapes are built for cruising, and if they can cruise in everything from ankle high to life threatening waves then they are a success... cruising is where it's at.
I'm going to get a roll oif 10oz glass to speed things up a bit, the 3d glass is pretty epic but is taking forever to get right'. I'll still use it but want to get some shapes out faster, so will probably use 3 layers of 10oz as well and see how that goes.
Hi Chrispy, yes we are still going to use 3d glass but I also want to do some with quicker turnaround and 2 or 3 layers of 10oz should be a breeze after this stuff:
I don't use the thumbs but thought it best I put it out there as I was one who should have shut my month along the way in that thread.
