Well well well, who would have thought there would ever be in an end to the epic saga of infiniteness known as Bun Foots!? But that was the plan, like "Hey maybe we should like, STOP filming someday? Bro?" When we sat to think about it, it became pretty clear that Esoteric was pretty much only done because of Narcoossee and Lake Whippoorwill, my home land and the place nearest to my heart, where bassetts play and fields sway in the wind behind pool gaps of stolen lumber.
Starting the middle of last week I made my station in Narc to begin readying things for whatever our cast of superstars would want to shred: rails, pool gaps, boat, jetski, winch, cable, wait no cable, etc. Ben was still around from the Jax trip so him and Drew and I put together a little flatrail in front of my dock, but unfortunately the Great Wind From the North came down upon us the next morning and left the rail pretty unhittable and pretty undesirable. Darn. Ben headed back to Jax for some Halloween fun but Drew was still around and was joined soon by Nicky T who came up Wednesday night.
Thursday we got done with the rest of the construction of the pool gap and began getting some tricks banged out on Friday and the rest of the weekend. It was sad not having the rest of the cast here: Hooker out with an injured ankle still (but he is coming back strong now!), Travis feeling under the weather, Stu... who knows, and clint in texas. We felt them here in spirit though, that is for sure. Especially Trav <3
Tyler MANgus gave us a great little visit Saturday morning and put down some bangers on the pool before heading back home that night. What a TRUEper. Welcome to the grannie gap Tyler. Andrew threw down as always, lovin the gap out of the pool and LOVIN his body varials....on the rail!!!! pretty mind blowing, i know. Speaking of which, have you ever seen Nick do any lock in tricks? Neither have I, until this weekend. Well he picked that up pretty quick and didn't set it down til he had sufficiently conquered that ledge with every form of legit grind he could think of.
The weekend was up, but we decided to go for one more day today (Monday) to get some last minute footage on the lake. It was a completely memorable feeling in a completely ordinary day back home to recognize what has past and look to the promising future of putting this bad boy together onto a skinny little silver disc.
There you have it: Monday, November 3, 2008. Fun Boots! filming is complete.
See you guys at the premier.
