Kneeboard Surfing USA Community Forum

Thanks for all the feedback, have been away from internet access and just catching up now. KenM - thanks for feedback on the wider board, have looked at link and am about to order one, looks like it will do the trick

Thanks again to all for the feedback - plenty to work on

Guys - thanks for all of the feedback, have plenty to work on. I have been following Simon's videos which is in part where I got the distinct impression that I was doing something wrong. the main issue is have is with regards to balance and the fact that a wider stance equates to more stability in m...

like the medicine ball idea and will give this a go - sure to get muscle memory settled down on land and hopefully translate into the water

No matter how hard I try, in the heat of the moment the knees seem to attract each other and weld themselves together resulting in me falling over myself at some point in the ride.

I'm refurbishing an old Flashpoint (circa 1985 designed for an Indo trip - 5'11" rounded square tail thruster) that I've found, has a centre fin box with small fin and two large glassed in side fins. I ride up on the Sunshine Coast, Australia and generally surf beachbreaks in the 1 to 3' range ...
