Fantastic wood kneelo build

A chap called Geoff just posted the above link on my blog (Cheers Geoff). It details an incredible hollow wood build by a Melbourne kneelo called Pete James. He's trying to recreate his all time favorite board (a strapper twinnie) in balsa an paulownia, pressure indentations and all.

An amazing display of kneelo eccentricity and love of knee riding!

Brilliant read. A more even tempered man that I, i have to say.
Love the plan shape too, looks like it would fly.
