Exoto的前生今世 (轉文)
History of Exoto
Original route as that of Tony Keusseyan, which begins in Lebanon adopted land of his grandparents who were able to escape the Armenian Genocide. Immersed in the automotive world from birth (his father worked at BMC), Tony collects miniature with passion. Growing up, the automotive passion never leaves him, and he began his working life alongside his father who has since founded his own company, Polimar. Newbie in steel construction, Polimar specializes quickly in high-end products for the finishing of car bodies, to the United Arab Emirates.
Exclusive Cars
Tony Keusseyan then went to live in California, where he founded in 1986 the company Exoto for Exclusive Cars. Exoto undertakes activities in line with family tradition, transforming luxury cars to make them even more exclusive. Hunt the natural, and their spots! The passion for miniature Tony never left, so quickly born a “miniature” department within the company, which imports and distributes different brands of thumbnails. The catalog will even have more than fifteen thousand references!
Exoto
Particularly demanding, and therefore eternal dissatisfied, Keusseyan Tony decides to take the plunge and produce its own models. The choice is fixed quickly on 1/18, a scale booming in all markets, and for a host of details. Thus was born the first model of the brand Exoto, the Lotus 49 Formula 1. A marvel, but that smile today about recent accomplishments brand has risen in ten years at the top. Word of mouth quickly made its effect and anchor the reputation of Exoto among the hardest collectors. The offer is diverse, ladders too, with the 1 / 43th and 1 / 10th.
Dubai
Like its competitors, Exoto built its models in China, but quickly moved a production line in Dubai, working exclusively for the brand. An incredible work is done upstream of the reduced model exhibited in a glass case. When possible, many measures are taken from a real model (not always possible when the model no longer exists, as was the case with the Ferrari 156 “Sharknose” which all copies were destroyed by Ferrari at the end of the season), a mass of documentation and plans met, then starts the numerical modeling of all the elements that form the miniature (which can currently count more than two thousand pieces for a model 1 / 18th!). Then comes the design and realization of tooling for the production of all components of the model.
Current Projects
The materials are also changing. If there a few years ago, most parts were cast in zinc alloy or plastic, is now aluminum, copper, brass, stainless steel and even leather involved in the achievements of these true collector’s items such as Alfa Romeo Alfetta 159 or Ferrari Tipo 246 Formula1, offered in different variants. And the future looks promising, with a Jaguar D-Type and Ferrari 250 LM from coming next. Rare, exclusive, the Exoto are hard to find commercially.
Happy Tennis: 7th Year Anniversary (7週年紀念)
過去一年裡主要集中單打訓練。
底線、腳法和網前都比過往有較大的進步,Top/Under Spin也多了不少變化。對於強勁的抽擊,開始懂得如何四兩撥千斤,以其人之道,還治其人之身。即係撞個波返去,的確好好使,而且慳水慳力,何樂而不為。
策略方面多了思考發球後下一步應該如何進行,尤其在實戰中觀察和尋找出對方的弱點。
逐漸學會了如何放鬆身體和思想,這樣才能發揮出最大的Power。
“Empty your mind! Be formless, shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. Put it into a bottle, it becomes the bottle, you put into a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now water can flow, or it can crash: Be water, my friend!”
- Bruce Lee
最後就是之前師兄教落,打波靠對腳,輕盈的步伐才是致勝關鍵,看看Federer優美的步姿就知道這個沒錯了。
