SO, who will be left kneeling in 10 yrs? Geritol anyone?

I know a guy that's still kneeboarding at 70 and shows no signs of slowing down. Use it or lose it.

Caveman, (Rick Beck) is still kneeboarding at 66yrs. young. Ken, your friend has him beat by 4 years.

I'll try to see if I will be able to at that age. Believe it or not, kneeriding isn't as bad as running (marathons). My Dad used to run several every year. But now at 77 he had to give it up because he's got a very bad knee!

...well, for one, the KSAUS titles will probably have to eliminate the Open, AAA, AA, Women's and Juniors...leaving a "Master's Only" competition.

If you're referring to Kneemo, he's on Paipos now.

Maybe we should refer to him as Paipomo.

Rocker, it wasn't Kneemo, he's only a couple years older than me so I can't bust him up over his age. As for calling him Captain Paipomo, he's too addicted to kneeboarding to stop and will soon (or maybe not THAT soon) be sporting a new Toby. Cappy, I know it's not your thing but I still think you should try doing some yoga, it's helped me heal some hip and knee problems. Bill, maybe we could get a ksusa sponsorship from Geritol.

52 and still stoked, never been a better time to be a kneeboarder, new cutting edge board designs and access to a worldwide community of other kneelos ! I'm with Bill F. in his statement : " Not Done Yet ! " Working now on getting in as good shape as possible to wrest a few waves from the hands of these 20-something Lahaina surf rats. Quadfin: Any details available on your kneelo specific workout program ?

Well the end is closer than yesterday, 47 as of midnight, it really sucks that I am catching up to most of you old farts

,but at least I still have enough sense to paddle out at big Wedge

Maybe that was senility sinking in

Things could be much worse, Max. As of midnight I'll be ten years older than you
