Kneeboard Surfing USA Community Forum

Good waves and some good surfing--thanks for getting that footage digitized. Who were some of the surfers on it, do you remember? blue board is Phil May. I know Gav Coleman was, Baden Smiths twin brother Andrew? was out there killing it....He was ripping it up. Stewie Irwin and Pat Bright were from...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAXq8X4jLLw&feature=youtu.be ok the camera work is very poor. I am obviously not a movie maker . :) I have had this footage sitting in a box in the garage for about 17 years. I have some pretty ordinary ( well ..worse than this ) footage of the actual comp as well....

My mate ..fellow kneelo Phil May snapped his clean off the bone.
It took a while and a couple of ops but his is ripping just like before.
He was back in the water in well under 6 months.

this was about 3 years ago now.

thanks Simon...great stuff. had to laugh at the newbie comment...already picture my poor lilly white excuse for a body limping into the joint. Done a fair bit of time on boats and know what you mean. I am expecting the boat trip to be a bit bumpy. I will be outside and at the back of the boat ...as ...

cheers.
I have an awesome suntan at the moment.
been indoors for about 12 days straight..will overload on sunscreen for sure!!!

cheers steve, I pretty arrive in Bali at night 9.00pm-ish and drop my boards at the office for bobbys. Then go to hotel and bed to be ready for pickup at 6am. A pretty long day ....via Darwin. We have taken the old man option of the fast boat. My arse will thank me I'm sure. speaking of my arse.. I ...

ok I am booked in at Bobby's for 5th July.

currently injured - which pretty much means no surfing until I go - but am gonna do it anyway.

I will take photo's only if I have to.

any tips re paddling out , avoiding death etc would be much appreciated.

as a fellow inured kneelo I feel your pain Tom.

Just last night I was back in hospital with a cathater ( sp? ) up my snake eye and a doctors finger up my arse.
worse night of my life.

thanks albert,

already laying awake at night in the jungle, shitting myself as to what might be waiting for me in the ocean.

update: getting worried ...as not enough punters for the boat at the moment. seriously looking at booking G-Land. I can surf all around Bali the last 2 weeks. stay at Bobby's? ( is that the go?) Might even get the fast boat. also....at these camps they say they give you e.g 5 beers per day with your...

don't know ...never been.
However , a guy in the Syd club was up the coast at Snapper when it was good .
He had no board, so he hired a fish and kneeled on that.
He said it was ok....dunno about turning though.

2nd week of July.
nusa lembongan, lombok and sumbawa.
7 days 6 nights.
$900.00 au dollar inlcudes all the usual stuff.
