Sexual Snowboarding’s DTF Teaser
March 27
This past January at the Denver trade show Halldor strolled into the Lobster booth with a band saw in one hand and a Big Gulp of some sort of vile liquor concoction in the other. He then proceeded to cut the nose of his Lobster board into a hammerhead in front of twenty or so assembled retailers, proudly proclaiming that if he could do it anyone could. The entire time he was standing their sawing I wasn't sure if at any moment I was going to see: a) Halldor cut one of his fingers off b) the board was gonna slip out and fly into the crowd or worse yet c) his hair which was dangling close to the saw was going to tangle and rip his skull into the blade. DTF marks the Helgason's third movie and I'd like to think filming for their project is kinda like that scene in Denver, dangerous....very dangerous and you never know what is going to happen.
