For some time Sean Ordonez made this beauty. South african flag in tinted resin..
Today I came across this picture of a (I don't know which brand..) new factory sup board...
You all can imagine what I thought...

oohh...come on! as if sean invented the south african flag...
ReplyDeleteBut why a South African flag on a board made in Taiwan?
ReplyDeleteIt's not about inventing a flag or so, or where it's made... but come'on bring some own originality.

David, ik heb jarenlang een surfposter uit 1989 boven mijn bed gehad met een reclame van Gotcha!.
ReplyDeleteMartin Potter surfde daar op een precies zo,n gekleurd board (van BH)...
Het is inderdaad klassiek, maar niet SO.
BH? Blue Hawaii??. gues it was HB, Hot Buttered.
ReplyDeleteJeroen, I know the point, sure flags got used on boards so much. That's not the thing now. But ok, here a little more on the story. Sean posted that board on his facebook for some time. And now popped up this new taiwan board. And yup, the one who showed that latest board recently became "friend" of SO's facebook account.
But hey.. no bad words here fom me etc.. it could all just be coincidence ;-)..
