Why do we hate our own shapers so much?

Roster I am glad to hear that you have 3 boards from 3 shapers. please support our shapers. You should try kneeboarding when you are not challanged by your problems.

Just a view from the inside out

hey gumby,

please spell my name right. First ofall I have no problems, I first started waveriding as a kneelo in '66 , went that way for 3 yrs. Then I tried standing and since it was similar to skatboarding I enjoyed that form. I still use the kneelo medium when I want to see things from the inside out.

PS I'm not apologizing, my watertime speaks for itself

Gumby,

Sorry about that last post. I thought you wrer giving me stool about standing. I always pack a kneeboard with my stand up, then make a decision when I see what i'm in for. Aloha bro

Hey Rooster I know I should'nt drink and type. Glad the barb stuck. Any how your water time speaks for it self. You should have come to the gathering.

As a water man injoy every second you spend however it is in the water. When you get a new board you should shake hands with person that shaped it. If like me you can not shape your own board shapers need our respect.

OH YEA THANKS DEAN FOR BEING THERE ON SATURDAY!!!

K-man & Gumby,

Sorry for the confusion,

I got turned on to this site by the orange kneeboarder of Blacks. Jack knows him contact him for verification. 9 out of an 18 pak Gumby, spelling might suffer. Did a Gathering @ Salt Creek 2 yrs ago, was totally impressed by the camraderie of the event. You don' t find that with the standups.

We as kneeboadrers may never have a pro tour. Un-less some one picks up the bar tab

Our shapers are our life blood. I rode 3 differnt boards this week end. The ones that did not work for me well it must be there fault

The new board I did get is going to make me learn. If you find a shaper that works for you great. Untill we all ride the same style board everyone will think that other shapers suck. Don't try it unless you can knock it. See ya in the water.
