F1 wildetecture animal mimacry skateboard deck

When i track around muizenberg with these wildetecture skateboard deck designs, the reactions are immediate. comments so far have been - "thats a kwaai board broer" "looks like a weapon of mass destruction"

The boards organic deck shape is the difference to anything else out their.  The wildetecture skateboard design could have an effect of sorts on current skateboard deck design. The departure point of the design for the wildetects was to prove that creatives can cross pollinate over design disciplines. A multi disciplinary creative design concept. This wildetecture concept has led to a host of wild ideas in surfing , mountain biking and skateboard shoe design. Which we will roll out as the money presents itself. This concept is design for design sake and putting ones design ability where ones creative mouth is. 

The F1 design sees the patented spine, large cut out organic low track wildetecture deck. Im busy with additional engineering features which will make it possible for skateboarders to negotiate steep hills without risking life and limb. You might say that will spoil the fun - safety is a helpful aspiration to having fun to be honest.

The real big problem with any new concept or design - Is the folk that couldnt design their way out of a square paper folding competition. Simply put - Flatout and straight out copy con practioners. Fortunately the wildetecture portfolio of work is so fringe - Its difficult really for anyone to copy without exposing a lack of original creative ability. Creativity for artistic design sake.
