Kneeboard Surfing USA Community Forum

Tested the new prescription surfing glasses on the weekend. SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!!! Very very lovely. So nice to be able to see the waves coming, and to also be able to see down the line. They don't fog, run clear and super comfy. LOVE "EM!!! Only problem is that previously it has changed my whol...

All the best, stay strong and love each other.

If there is anything that us Brisbane or Sunshine Coast kneelos can do to help out, just yell.

Thoughts and prayers with you.

Fair enough John Manas oh and the best tube riding board is the one your on when the little sucker winks at ya :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: ...this could just about be the meaning of life.... :lol: I wouldn't be worrying too much about getting a board for tubes. Anything that you can ride, and have ...

.....also, having a quad set-up with fins forward isn't necessarily a bad thing. It allows you to use more length of the rail to turn off. So things like double-flyer rounded pins really start it work. It forces you on to the rail to make use of it. I can actually feel the pivot off each of the flye...

Nah - 5 fins have been around forever - and it's like saying "quads will replace tri-fins". It just doesn't work that way. Some people prefer the tail slide of a quad, while others (like me) can't even turn a tri-fin because of the drag off the rear fin. So it is all down to what you like ...

Jon is right - kneeboarding is tube riding. It is also likely that your first kb is going to be straighter and more stable (rather than advanced hotdog board) - which, when combined with good timing, will be you tubed. Since you have already surfed you'll be well ajead of the game.... just remember ...

Yeah, extra Meat is superfluous.....

Always use flippers - I get better grip with them. I use the Rip Curl copies of the original Churchills. I don't think they are made anymore, but I have a backup set just in case :P Tried flipperless a couple of times but kept spinning my feet off the board. I've never had any problem with flipper d...

I've been using the Parkes full deck since they first came out way back when. They've just been getting better and better. My new board has just arrived :D and I've included a full deck with it. Then I just wax in between as well as up the rails for duck diving. The grip is superb and, while sometim...

Just a comment on length which only just came to mind when reading some ofthe earlier comments on this topic.... ....when surfing Desert Point in Indo at 10 foot (give or take - it all just seems really big to me when it gets up over 8 foot) I paddled out on my 6' 3" board - and prompty got fre...

Hi All For all you guys and gals out there who need prescription glasses - I've just got a couple of sets of prescription surfing glasses. They're from Sundog, and are very similar to the Oakly ones but at a fraction of the price. I got a pair last year because I have a trigium (spelling?) in my rig...
