Board Availability

Asolmssen, Check out the forum about the world wide kneeboard bank on this site. I went to Oahu in December of 2008, I wanted to avoid the high cost of the fees to bring a board with me too. I ended up going all over Oahu looking for a kneeboard! Surf shops were showing me everything from those Cost...

I cracked my ribs in my late 40's kneeriding the 'shoe. I wiped out on a really hollow left. My body got directly over my board and the board submerged into the water and came back up hitting me right on my side! :cry: Take 2-3 advil or 2 Aleve, and try not to laugh at any good jokes!

RIP Terry

So sorry to hear about this loss. I believe it was a couple of months ago, that I heard something that he was in the hospital! Hoping that he'll turn for the better. In '00 or '01 Terry had a super-raised Baja Beetle that he used to drive really fast offroading down in Baja on several surf trips. RIP.

leg cramps

I found a product at a grocery store that is 100% natural. It's homeopathic
Hyland's Leg Cramps. It stops leg cramp pain, cramps in calves & feet,
cramps and pain in lower back, and pain in limbs & joints, it really works for
me! :D

Bonzer kneelo

When you mentioned about bonzer kneelos, I remembered this from a couple of years ago. This was shaped by one of the original bonzer guys:

Big Rock

I've seen this break look like a mini Pipeline many times.
The kneeboarders would outnumber footboarders 2:1! :D

Thanks for posting that Yogi, that is the poster that I have of the Wedge alright. And that link that you posted, it's a small world! The 3rd comment from a Ken Windfield, is a good friend of mine. But I actually know his older brother first, Kevin. I surfed Blacks with Kevin during that swell, 15ft...

AB, It was the swell of '75, the New Zealand "Monster from down under."
I have that poster. I was told that the board going over the top of the
wave was a bellyboard. Nevertheless, it's still one huge wave! I still stare
at it almost every day. :)
