    They can rip your style, but no one can rip your skills. Awesome as always man!
    And for what its worth, I enjoy your non-OP-1 videos just as much, sometimes more, so don't worry about people 'missing' the old styles, just keep doing you!

They are my favorite toys. Thanks for all that you do!
