... and it looks pretty uninspired to me. Maybe it will be fun ... who knows. I told the guy doing the work that it'd be cool to incorporate the cinderblock wall in the middle on 1 side. But that doesn't look like its happening. Meanwhile Anthony was overheard telling someone on the phone it'll be done in another week. I seriously doubt it.

| Tranny looks way too mellow. 10 foot tranny on 4 foot bowl = lots of back and forth, and no carving. |

| Looks like a kiddie pool. We should take a piss in it. |

| When it rains (which is often) my options are a waxed curb under a fly-over with 10ft of dry ground or an oily car park 30 minutes' drive away. I'd be stoked if someone built anything inside. |

The biggest problem I have with it is the small size and shallowness will preclude any more of the epic slams Fox was famous for.
No more counting the hang time and covering your eyes ... |

That was not a slam - it's called an Eagle, heel-flip, varial to boneless -- switch, of course.
I see this new bowl -- with corners -- as a lot more interesting than Academy's kiddie pipe. Steve and I went yesterday in the middle of the afternoon. What a mistake. I almost sent another teen to the hospital.
Both places are a waste of wood but as mentioned previously...althought these are not that bad to have when it's raining.
I'm considering moving just to find a place with a barn/cottage that can be retrofitted to include a gaps replica -- with birch. It's fun to dream... |

I understand now, why they are calling it the Bird Bath.
Maybe I might learn some lip tricks, not to far to fall...  |
