Simon, thanks for the great write up. I have already stolen jamie’s to use for the local paper. I hope to see more pictures soon, there were plenty taken and a lot of footage as well, it just takes a while for us vicco’s to get things going.
The comp is only as good as the people that attend, and over the years we have been lucky enough to have World Class fields. This years event was right up there with the best. I think the depth of talent is shown by those that were eliminated along the way. Even the lower grades were very competitive. And most of all , it was enjoyable for all competitors.
The history of Kneeboarding on the Island will be commemorated with a trophy recognising Neil Luke’s contribution over four decades, and continues with the Victorian club now running the Island Ink Pro.
There are still some gaps in the history but I have Baden on the hunt, so I think we will have more information soon.

Hi Stan,
Thanks mate. Yes Gavin did win at least one absolutely. He beat me one year just not sure which one out at centre crack Penguin parade. Gav surfed in the corner at the point and i surfed the main peak.
I feel for Dean, I think i have at least half a dozen seconds myself over the years.
I saw you out Kitties on the Monday after the event, i couldn't do it mate

How do you get a video up here?
I've got every wave of the final recorded, but I'm at a loss as to what to do with them!
Tried to email one to you Simon, and to legless.tv, but the files are a bit too big, so no go...
Can I post you a USB stick with them on it? Not crash-hot filming, but they are on 'film' all the same. Give me a yell via email (if you've still got my address) and I'll get them to you somehow, if you like.
Cheers, and congrats on the win!!!

Nothing from legless...Why?
...because we leave the majority of comp stuff, to sites like KSUSA and Kneeboard Surf Australia etc.
Also neither Rob or I was at PI. Our other legless members where present, but not to write an overview of the comp thats not there forte
On legless.tv we are happy to say there is a comp on and talk about kneeriding lifestyle, some progressive kneeriding and the characters that make it so, but we dont want to try and be everything for kneeriding....we are trying to stay a little more kneelo organic on legless.tv
..phew... I know we all struggle with time, just to do what we do now on legless.
lucky we love it
