Very nice. Are you using a follow focus on those close ups? I like how you appear to track the board as it moves along the rail and the focus follows it. It seems very precise and if I were to try that with just my lens alone, I'd have to have a bunch of takes before I nailed one. Especially since this has been slowed down and the real action was 2x faster.

Nice work!

Nice to see I'm not the only one using the old FD lenses.
