1. f4!? g5?? and black boldly plays a wing gambit on his kingside. Insane

Game 3214338
My firt attempt at the grob. Iwas to do it in some time but just now got the courage to do it. Had an oppen challenge accepted it and then I thought: " What the heck!!" So now it's on and impossible to go back.
It seems to be a lotta fun

This is too hard for me at this moment.
