December Doodads - Day Seven

Longboarding Voigtlander

This particular December Doodad combines both historical - a beautiful 1930's era Voigtlander Bessa camera - and modern - a very cool wooden longboard crafted by a local wood artisan - into one photograph.

And maybe I'm just twisted but the idea of a skateboarding camera....appeals to me.
 
When surfing started in the UK we had to make our own boards with solid curved rails & marine ply deck - they weighed a ton

up until then we used a single sheet of ply with a curved nose (precursor to the boogie boards)
