    I think I'm missing something. How is pulling a plane a risky test? If you're worrying about it falling on the floor just put the board on the ground. It's a good thing I never linked the first video Paul did, where it flies off the end of the board and he has to catch it with his rope.

    On the other hand, it does make me feel a little bit irresponsible and dangerous knowing that I'm living on the edge. I wonder if my wife will look at me differently given my new bad-boy image.

    Oh, OK, here's the other video I was referring to from 2014 (start at 3:30)...

    Lance, can you please let all the men hear know how it’s going with “cultivating”the bad boy image,
    Particularly in how the “wife” as viewed your new persona.

    I’m just interested from a theoreticalperspective of course.

    Cheers Matt.

    Just on cultivating the "bad boy" image I am wondering whether there would be a different result depending on the style of plane: "Steel" or "wood."

    It would be in the name; Clint would be single-handedly waving a Stanley 6; whereas the woody would be wielded by Cletus.
