I like that cliff side rock appearance and I think you showed a really nice tree to adapt to that cliff.
The “ nice movement” rock....reminded me of great waves down in Huntington Beach CA. I’d have a tendency to just keep the rock for the wave reminder...surf's up!

Nice rock collection.

That is actually the back of that same one.

Kind of a conundrum....or not...
Since that branch can cascade left or right and either front is at about the same state of being righteous or not....

Seems a perfect bloody fit though....I'm itching for Summer and it's not even winter yet!

Are they solid rocks or hollow like? Just curious...mentioning you worry about freeze thaw. Sweet planting options for sure! Hope they withstand your winters.

Ahhhhhh...now that you’ve told me I see the shape presented each way. I missed that part before....thought they were different rocks. Yup....Surf’s Up....you have a great view from the shoreline or from out in the ocean.....good view front or back. It will be interesting, inspirational fun, to see what you do with the rock.

I’m interested in what you do with the rock...I have not done any rock planting design at all. Just imagination and hope-to-someday.

Water them and let them sit out all winter and see if they crack.

Well shit .....
Twenty-one F and snow.

Seems winter done came last night...

And I was contemplating bringing them in...

Hello Winter!

I gotta disco my rain barrels.

Again, forgive me if I'm wrong and please edumicate me!!!
I am also researching on how to create that holey, fissured, dragon, Seikyu style with some Air induced Cement! closer everytime, but now its March and got a YOU.know.what LOAD of repotting to do. Just Curious and jealous, you will do them right with out a doubt! Heart shaped or not!!

I don't skate much anymore...not that I won't again in the future...but last time I did skate, I blew out a Pig Wheel that was only a few rides old...it just flew apart!
It was crazy, almost a decade of burning wheels down to nubs, and that never happened once!
....on my Alien Workshop Deck with Venture Trucks and Black Panther Bearings ??

1520278983958.png Good times!!!! Used to ride a Santa Cruz Jason Jessee on Independent 180s with a set of Hasoi Rockets. Ate shit on a wall ride and caught the nose right in the chicklets!! Axle got bent too, so I just took my frustrations out on it!!! Boards these days work a lot better, have you seen the noses on these things? Good for switch and should make ollies that much easier.....or so I'm figuring!!! It's been too long, and 4" and 60 lbs!!!!!!!!:mad::eek::eek::eek::eek:o_Oo_Oo_Oo_Oo_O
