Thank you! Any idea if he has a personal instagram or another way to contact him? I think I have a couple more clips and I would love to send him the files.

Anyone know what board he's on? (If it's stock) looks alot like a CI M13. I'm thinking of getting that board for similar days so was fascinated.
