Danny continued V1.1
Danny’s into crystals and grounding his body, and that helps him cope with living in the city and away from the wilderness, which better suits his developing spirit.
Brigitte is turned on by these crystals too, and has an interest in them being from China (or whatever her country) where many can be found. Also, Danny has developed the designs for a grounded shoe and a grounded ski, that are for connecting his body to the earth to collect free electrons and make him feel more relaxed. Ultimately however, he ends up crushing much of his crystal collection to make orgonite, and he learns that being grounded in the city is not always such a healthy thing due to the stray voltage causing more harm than good.
A lot of guys think he is a effeminate and vain for these crystals, but he doesn’t care because it is not true and is offset by how many chicks dig his cool and unique style. Incredibly, the crystals themselves act as a defence against incoming negatively, especially fire agate. He also finds that the crystals help him perform better when rollerblading or skiing.
Danny wears his crystals when playing drums too, in hip-hop and acoustic street sessions.. and this amplifies his energy and attraction power. It’s a unique hack he has developed. He also does some hip-hop production and dancing based on this creative energy he has unleashed.

City vs Mountain – Danny’s character development
Two of Danny’s pastimes are windsurfing in the local bay and street drums:
However, he still feels mentally constrained because of the pollution in the city environment. This includes EMF pollution from cell towers, smart meters, and the overall air pollution. He may actually be depressed as a result. However, those two aforementioned activities help him escape the city’s claustrophobic and rigid effect on him.
He craves the mountains, which also represent spiritual growth in Indian and Tibetan traditions, and give him greater creativity, hence his development of the Heartcarve ski whilst skiing.
This is recognized in Taoist culture and art as well, ie Heaven vs Earth imagery.
Brigitte is a skateboarder and dancer (B-Girl), and Danny discovers this when he visits China (or whatever is her birth country.) This ends up bringing them closer together. Also, the two of them become mini-celebrities by the end of the story due to footage of the Big Race, similar to Adrian Boron and the footage of Twurp’s Burps.

Some of the more successful or interesting photoshops posted to Newschoolers between 2013-2015 while I was living in Jerusalem. There is a strong photoshop culture on that site. I created a large number. Some have sexual or violent overtones (a couple with drug references,) but nothing unsuitable or banned for this site, which essentially targets teen skiers, ie a PG13 rating.
Note: not all of these were posted to that site, namely the rollerblading ones.

Additional Heartslayer Vids (and photos) 1.1
The problem with the Heartslayer skis on hard groomers is that they shudder. This is evident in the video below, about 20 seconds in. The rear end of the outside ski (and my leg) shudder on every turn due to the tail not being wide enough.
In pow and soft snow there is no shudder because the edge isn’t digging into the snow as strongly and there is a smooth ride.
The MeatHammer ski corrects this by having a really wide tail.
Below is a vid I entered into the TGR Colab 2013 competition. The powder segment begins at 3:20.
