A contemporary entity, driven by intense surfboards designs. The fruit of experimentations and researchs about Displacement Hulls. An eternal approach of handshaped surfboards...

 It is explained that two geometric figures are topologically equivalent or homeomorphic, if each of them can be transformed into the other by a CONTINUOUS DEFORMATION. This only means that there is only one figure in transformation. But also, in topology, a network is formed of nodes, segments, vertices and arcs and the topology of a network reflects its RELATIONAL CAPACITY. In other words, approaching a theme (here surfing) through topology is integrating that there is a multiplicity of ambiguous and different currents but that by making them intertwine, they are transformed into a unified whole. It is also this occult technique that will immediately prevent the duplicity of equivalent or even identical geometric figures. Rather, it will transform these surfaces into playful and differential geometry. Thus, not « surfing" reproducing itself in the continuity of a pre-established linear pattern, but « surfing » in continual transformation, juxtaposing an infinite number of concepts...

 

"It is not difficult to see that our time is a time of gestation and transition to a new period; Surfing has broken away from the world of its "being-there" and of the representation that has lasted until now; it is about to bury this world in the past, and is in the work of its own transformation. In truth, surfing is never in a state of rest, but is always carried along in an indefinitely progressive movement; thus surfing that is forming matures slowly and silently to its new figure, disintegrates fragment by fragment the edifice of its previous world; the shaking of this world is only indicated by sporadic symptoms; the frivolity and boredom that invade what still remains, the vague presentiment of an unknown are the harbingers of something else that is on the way. This continuous crumbling that did not alter the physiognomy of the all is abruptly interrupted by the sunrise, which in a flash, draws in one go the shape of the new surfing… "
