Custom Pangram

I wasn't happy with the pangram in the last post so wrote my own.

Z-boy is a reference to dogtown and z-boys which is a documentary about surfers in California who first developed skateboarding in the 70's.

I made the surfer connection because I think the type is dirty and many shapes remind me of coral or seaweed and the bright colours are working much better than any of the Matisse stuff I tried.

It should read “z-boy surfed with verve, quickly making waves but flipped at the crux onto jagged coral” and I have just realised that I have done about thirty variants of this with coral spelt wrong :(
