Wildetecture skateboard deck - blade runner - prototype

Experimenting with wild organic creative form - in an established sporting code - is always going to be challenging. However when your a wildetecture style designer, your not looking to create items for resale. Hang! we are not looking for accolades or pats on the back even. We looking to satisfy a raw primal intense need to design something different, something new - a never before seen or interpreted like that outcome. 

To play in the mindspace of creative originality. To design something once seen changes a perspective. I dont really care about established purists and whats design acceptable to them. Fuddy duddy and poppycock i tell you. Or whats going to appeal to the masses for resale, whats trending is not a direction wildetecture is ever interested in.  The reality with this blade runner skateboard deck - You wipe out - Your minus a limb. So dont wipe out. Simple really. 

Now imagine letting just any skateboard plebecian barnicle ride your boards. Chop liver before the sun goes down. No ways, no how, not interested in the lawsuits from parents who think street cred is handing over a supercar as the kids first motor vehicle. Wrapped around a tree in a few months. You hurt my poor little johnny jane, no thanks dont want to be part of that type of parents fantasy to life and childhood fairytale. No thank you very much.

Blade runner deck comes with age and skill and restrictions. Yes i know generation "NMPO" does not understand limitations. But some lessons and realities are beyond the scope of us mortals. Just try jumping out an aeroplane at 
10 000 ft naked alone with no support crew or any help. One has to tighten the perameters on these examples, because the argument will never end. Well what if i do this.... Nope! naked, no support! The objective of my analogy is death by example. Well what if i jump out on the moon? No, earth, naked, dead. Splat!

The photos below where taken in this dirty old town. (Its a song ok) before i offend the very types wanting a limb cut off or a nail embedded through their nose and left eye. By the factory wall. Muizenberg corner, Close to were wildetecture designed the future train station signal box. This is a blade runner Conan sword fish skateboard deck. Sharper than any 2 edged sword. Keep your fingers tightly in check i say. Chop liver delta.
