Marty Skips Rocks is for people who still stop at the water to throw a stone.
The work is the skip: how a disc of rock stays up, how to pick one, how to throw it so the water answers more than once. The handle is martyskipsrocks. These notes are written by Marty Skips from throwing, not from a catalogue.
Notes first
Before stones and merch, there are field notes. The science, how to choose, size, shape, and weight, and how to throw. That is the centre of this site. Not a catalogue. Not a countdown clock dressed up as a shop.
When a paper is named, it is a paper that exists. When a record is not named, it is because this site does not sell wonder with a fake number. The shoreline is enough.
What is not for sale yet
Stones and merch are coming. They are not here. There are no invented product photos and no pretend testimonials. When stones arrive they will be real stones, photographed as they are. Until then, the field notes are what you came for.
If you want the throw, start with the notes. If you want something to buy, wait. We will say when it is actually for sale.
How to reach the work
Instagram, TikTok, and X use the same handle: martyskipsrocks. The field guide on this site is the canonical writing. Video should send you back here, not the other way around.
For a note that is not a page, use the contact form. For the science, choose, size, and throw, stay in the notes.
