if i remember correctly he was so tired of the athmosphere, negativity and close mindness of people and left the online communities off this area.

that is an decision i completely understand if it was like that

There's a little bit more to it than that, but I won't go into the specific details here.. But basically yes, nordic is right - it was the closed-mindedness of some members in chopping that made him leave the chopping scene and hang up the brush. Creative minds like that don't just quit art for good so I bet he's on to other forms of art somewhere or other. Definitely one of the most talented choppers from back in the day, just look at it now his chops are still talked about!

My fav chop of all times. I used to spend a lot of time just looking at the brush.

About the rims, I remember when Jack85 posted it, Cloud commented it, saying that his girlfriend noticed that the wheels looked fake/plastic, or something along those lines

i know, but it is his personal area and i wont bring it here because it is his personal stuff and shoul be left as one
