Ex-local Troy Cryder has made a new film that interviews many local shapers.  Also has local music by Riverman, Honey Miller, and lots of others.  The trailers look good and the DVD is only 15 bucks... just ordered a copy for myself.  We live in the heart of East Coast shaping, and this movie gives some insight into what goes into that board under your feet.
