50337 542 The Joel Tudor vs. Joe Aaron thing 59 aslbuck Aug 5, 2013 2013-08-05T17:54:20-0400 Smukes - it takes brass balls for a white man living in Leucadia to post up a shot of Big Daddy Kane as his profile picture. http://youtu.be/6FWfKoc-MKM Feel fear to watch the non-abridged clip of this scene if time allows and bored. The sad thing is that JA has all the skills and abilities to be a great longboarder, yet sadly seems misguided or something. It's not like the once critiques of Alex, in that Alex's style has come to be accepted as who he is. A good friend of mine, among the top single fin loggers I have ever seen surf, once told me that rather than attempt to iron out those little quirks in your surfing that people might critique (for him crazy arms at times, for me an occasional bobble head) you should embrace your "flaws". If only JA's quirks were flaws and not the result of calculated maneuvers. Oh well. If super bored, see if you can spot me, based on bobble head, and unnamed friend, based on crazy arms, in this short film we were in last year as part of a local short surf film festival: http://vimeo.com/37682562
