Let me know how you go, finding a board in wiikiki as against going over to the north shore these days I am happy to cruise waikiki reefs but I always taken my own board which is a hassle when you get off the plane.

Thanks Bud,
silly me left his run too late an did not see your reply till too late, Ended up taking the soft option and took a "sponge " instead. Awsome surf!!! Had a ball. Now that we have sussed the place out, we are going to come back maybe next year. So I will stay in touch.

I have a Blast 5'10 Swallow, Coffey 5'9 Thumbtail, and 3 self shaped 5'8 Rounded Pins.

All are FCS Quads between 2 1/4 and 2 3/4 Thick. Also have a 5'8 Rounded Pin with Future Quad set up.

Drop me a line if you are in need.

Nice offer, Joel!

Small set back for the WBB here on Kauai, someone nicked two of my boards from my farm yesterday. The biggest bummer for me was one of the boards was Red's, he left here for all to use. I will try to build up my quiver for you guys comming this way, but its all about $$ right now. I'll do what eva it takes to see that you guys are coverd if you come here. aloha -scott

I will be in Kauai late April. Anyone have a quad in the 5'8-6'0 range I could use for a few days? Any help or thought would be greatly appreciated. We will be staying on the East-side.

A trip to South Africa has come up (for a conference) and I've managed to force my colleague to stay a night at J-Bay on Saturday, June 23

Need a board for Sunday the 24th.

Any help or leads greatly appreciated!

Thanks, Brad

Hi Brad, hope all the planets line up for you with swell, winds, no crowds, and board, and good waves

Always wanted to go to south africa

Good work.....

Being a relative newby to this site, I haven't seen this thread before.

I have a 5'9" quad rounded pin, and a 5'10" quad swallow tail (both Parkes boards) if needed in the Newcastle, NSW area.

Thanks Doc for the well-wishes!

Still no leads on a stick unfortunately.

I'll keep checking in.
Brad

J-Bay footie shaper Glen D'Arcy has shaped several sweet looking kneeboards which have been posted on this site. Also, perhaps Terence H in Durban has a mate in J-Bay or Port Elizabeth with a board to loan or hire. Also saw a vid on this site several months ago of a woman ripping up Durban or ?, so she might know where you could get a board.

I have great memories of Peter Hosking in 1980 defining warp speed at Supers and getting so deep at Bruce's Beauties we couldn't photograph him - towards the end of our stay, Paul Wuslich came and drew some beautiful lines to boot. Only Bobby Owens matched Peter's speed runs. For the Yank and Saffa kneeboarders, Peter's Paul Gravelle twinnie was an eyeopener re: fin placement, chine rails, channels. Hope you get some roping walls to wail on.
