While I gave up snowboarding years ago, this is an amazing video. The attention to detail and obsessive desire for perfection is yet another reason why I love the Japanese culture and craftsmanship...
"An epic video shot over nine days, filmmaker Ronin follows the precise steps involved in creating a gold-plated Nike Zoom Force 1 snowboard boot. Under the watchful hands of Complete Technique
(aka Osamu Koyama), the artist painstakingly sketches, molds and
creates a final product beyond its original functional intentions but
rather a true piece of art. The “American Eagle” as it was dubbed was
created as part of the Shoeshine Project 2012." - Hypebeast
