Kneeboard Surfing USA Community Forum

Thanks for the update narrative, Ryan! I'll catch you next time you're around here. Keeping talkin' that boss into business trips in the Silicon Valley! The pic was great, BTW. Such a good carve back in the power section of the wave. Takes good surfing just to get into that position, for sure! Scott

You also could consider adding a center box, surfing it as a tri-fin, which might come off the top better. Also, have you tried using smaller fins? Less surface area on your fins can mean less "hanging up" at the top of the wave. I have been using grom-size fins for awhile now and have enj...

Wow, the guy's just kinda making it up as he goes along. I guess because the website has main links to "SURFING KITEBOARDING, WINDSURFING, BODYBOARDING, SKIMBOARDING, WAKEBOARDING," the author wanted to come up with a narrative that would show some blending from several of these sports. Bu...

Hi Rland, Glad you're having such a great experience in kneeboarding now. You're so right--when you get on a great board, the sensations and speed are amazing and it can completely reorient your surfing! It sounds like the Glen Horn board is working well for you but you are right to ask about what i...

I'd still like to read the article but can't seem to find it. Does anyone have a more precise URL? Thanks.

Some nice tube time logged there, Chris! Not bad for being out of the water for months...

Hit hard ? Once in a blue moon, but I feel it's often luck that it doesn't happen more often. I always try to be aware of where my board is when I fall, either doing my best to hold onto it or trying to stay "out of the back" of the wave while the board is pulled toward shore. But there ar...

Count me in--I'm going!

Great finish indeed for Team USA. Any sense yet of where they will be holding the 2019 World Titles?

Thanks for keeping us in the loop, Joe. Great video. Team USA making a great start in the first two rounds!

Here's a 90 second shorty of a pleasant Gathering of the crew this last summer in SoCal. Sorry that I couldn't be there personally...

Yes, Fossil Man, my friend. You did correctly recognize that board and it was exciting for me to see that it's still in use on the East Coast. Probably not the best board for any kind of gutless conditions (unless you're under 125lbs), but will shine in some of those head high point breaks we occasi...

Hey, that thread has my old post about using the Shinfins. Cool idea but my review still stands in my mind--not a good fin for the power needed with kneeboarding.

most folks outside the community sees kneelos as pretty one-dimensional and GG is the only name they know. It's an understandable mistake, I think, when the guys sees a blonde-headed guy from the early 70's on a kneeboard...

Hi Dean,

If no one in the know sees your query and posts a reply, PM me and I can get you in touch with a nice kneelo on Maui who knows the whole scoop.
