... maybe it be magic with a bit more tail rocker in turns!

too skan - I'll take a 6-0 Budoflex and a 5-10 Blaviso

Steve's blog has one photo of a kneeboard, towards the bottom of this page: http://www.pendo.com/pendo-blog/page/7/ And it say's "Steve makes a variety of kneeboard designs, including squash tails and pintails". I wonder how the KB fish would compare to Bud's F2K ? - looks like the fins ar...

Really sorry to hear this Suzie, I didn't know Bob, but always enjoyed his posts on KSUSA.
Rest in peace Bob.

Joel Tudor just likes kneeboards and thinks we're cool. Stoked to hear that, he's always said 'ride everything' but I always wondered whether he was including kneeboards in that statement. I'd love to see him surf a kneeboard - if he's so interested why can't we (ie; someone who knows him, like eq)...

This thing looks like an awesome shape for a kneeboard - check out the concave channels

Only 21.6 wide though....

KED, I'd be wary of being hit in the visor by the board, the visor looks like the kind of plastic that could shatter into sharp shards if hit hard enough, it's not made from the same shock absorbing material as the helmet itself, so you could end up with worse injuries from the sharp plastic being d...

This Pufferfish looks interesting to me, it's radically short, wide & thick at 4'11" x 25" x 3&1/4" What's everybody think about going this short, wide & thick for a small wave kneeboard ? It seems to have plenty of speed in the video... Go to: http://www.9fishsurf.com/ th...

Oh yeah - almost forgot I've got a Parkes Mush Board for sale too that would float you, scroll down the post on the link below for photos - can get it sent to Cornwall for £30

Hey Kneeboarder! My friend Richard lives in Woolacombe :shock: and wants to sell his 5'10" Parkes tri :D because I've just sold him my 5'9" Parkes Quad :P He's 13.5 stone - If you're interested he'd probably let you have a go on the board first to check it floats you O.K. - PM me if you wa...

Headwax - Belle Ile is 2-3 hours drive south of where I live. It would be good to meet you if you get chance to visit further north - when you coming ? - I can lend you a Parkes quad if you need a board :) Thanks Ken for the Rainbow info, the speed dialers seem to work good for me once the surf gets...

Thanks Mark - I think my local surf shop are getting some H2 demos in, so hopefully I can try before I buy - good to hear they work well in small waves, as that is what I'm looking for. Thanks Headwax, I've got the MR's - need to experiment with the rears :) Have you seen the Rainbow speed dialer qu...

Headwax said:

Glass fins are the go. Especially Marke Richard's fibreglass twinnis

Headwax, what do use use as rear fins when using the MR's and what size waves do you think they work best in ?

I've been thinking about trying an H2 quad set - have you tried H2's ?

thanks,
James

Here's another :idea: Would it be possible for all the usual distributors & surf shops that sell Simon's films to take peoples money and issue everyone who pays for a copy with a credit note, to be exchanged for the new film when it is available. These distributors/shops would then put in a pre-...

I'm in for one

Here's an :idea: I'd happily put up $40 in advance for Simon's next DVD - are they good or what :D If 250 of KSUSA's 1385 members did the same, Simon would have $10,000 to help him make the next film and also some reassurance in that 250 (or more) copies had pre-sold 8) All of Simon's films are awes...
