Metaphysically stoked with the brilliance of Gary Hanel's quads

From the inbox,
Hey there,
Here's a pic of me engaging in obscene blissitudes, immersed within the pragmatic psychedelia of a fun and expansive Northern California wall, carving with my 5'7" Hanel Quad fueled with the hand made owl wings of Marlin Bacon's bamboo fins. I love surfing my Hanel quad and twinny in ways which transcend language, just as the experience of surfing - the art of surfing as opposed to the competitive idea of the
sport of surfing - is situated in the experiential world of blissitudes, art/aesthetics: a dimension far beyond words. Hanel's boards combine his love of mathematics with the calculus of pure stoke. Each Hanel board I've ridden is a living work of high velocity intelligence meets the surreal functionality of art - a nexus made in interstellar awesomeness to say the least. I thank all of you - Hanel, Moonlight, and Marlin Bacon - for all your timeless brilliance and creativity put into generating these wave-gliding sculptures.
Chaka-ly yours,
Kevin
