learning to barefoot

if folded up the boom also make some interesting height, but is the clamp strong enough to handle that load?

probably won't just be able to flip the boom up and have the cable length be just right to attach snug to a bowstrap...so you'd need to custom fit a strap to the right length.

I think the double stack is easiest cheapest safest...but use what you gotta use.

That is a motivational pic! I am so ready to get my boat finished, put on that dry suit and get after it. If all goes well I will have my BFN complete in 3 - 4 weeks.

yes that Redneck SuperFlyHigh was a work of art(craftsmanshipwise)

there were a couple others

Safety first is not in the vocabulary of the above owner........shrink tape used as a bracket.......yikes!!!!

Is that (shrink tape) pole being used as a tow point or maybe a flag pole??

The fact he has a triple trick release says they are probably pulling a show of some sort.

In the barefoot community, Chuck seems to be one of those guys that most 'footers love to hate. Its nothing new, and even Chuck freely admits that he "gets no respect" from most that have been around the barefoot world for a while.

I watched both WBC and BFC videos (or most of Chuck's anyway, it was a bit long). I don't deny Chuck to the opportunity to do a half hour commercial on how wonderful Andre is or the merits of freestyle, but in the context of it being an response to the WBC video, I think he overreacted. I don't think WBC was dissing Andre or freestyle, I think it they were just saying that is not the business they are in, and for them, it comes down to focusing on their business model. They might have diminished freestyle a bit by saying its just fun and games and not serious, but I don't really think they were finding fault, plus they were saying freestyle and BFC and ADV have done a lot to promote the sport and that is a good thing for everyone. I say a little overreaction on Chuck's part, but take away his reason for doing it, it was a reasonable promotional video if you take out the "well they said..." parts.
