It appears that it took the North American’s a while to figure out that bowl riding isn’t about monster airs and corking tricks. It’s about flow and line and style. But they seemed to finally figure it out. By next year’s Holy Bowly they might even be ready for reals.

Fast driving tire shredder and branding genius Ken Block has launched his new Helm Ken Block Signature Series from Spy.
Custom-color arm variations in the Signature Series—which can be snapped-on and–off and mixed-and-matched—are further punctuated with asymmetrical tip colors on the left temple, inspired by Block’s mismatched wheel color and single-spoke accents on his 650-horsepower, 2.0-liter H.F.H.V.
We guess they’re like they’re like rally cars for your face. Follow the jump for the official word. [click to continue…]

Brain Farm has just shut down the “who has the coolest camera” race with the Schiebel Camcopter S-100 unmanned Cineflex camera.
The S-100 navigates via pre-programmed GPS waypoints or is operated with a pilot control unit. Missions are planned and controlled via a simple point-and-click graphical user interface. The pair of these two high advanced systems gives us the ability to capture fully stabilized high quality images with ease.
Good lord. We can hardly wait to see this little UAV fitted out with proper energy drink logos. . .

Yeah, this has nothing to do with snowboarding, skateboarding, or surfing but so what. Aaron Draplin is interesting. The designs he creates are interesting, and more than that, the stories he tells are interesting (even after the third of fourth telling). So here. . . get interested in the Field Notes story.
