Surf and turf, ready for Christmas camping
BRMs and indicator lenses antenna and bits ( 1/4 vents yet to fit) Thanks Roy
Rack council cleanup modded to suit half 125mm stormwater wind difflector turned it into an aerodynamic wonder and cancelled all noise!
Side step thanks Lobus I love it.
Malibu $30 gararge sale its a Gordon and Smith stringerless transition mal in fantastic shape the George Greenough fin system still works (detatchable).
Just fitted new tires Hankook RAO8 light Truck and highly recommend the change fron Passenger tires I am now legal they ride great not to hard (35 psi with out load and 50 with) no road noise issues and handeling is great they are cheap also and are OEM VW issue for passenger vans and are half the price of Michelin Agilis and rate better in tests see the bus boys site.

Nice step you got there Mitchell.
What have you done to the rack?
It looks like powdercoat from here.
Did it cost much to get done?
I have got an oldie as well and am
thinking of doing the same as that to mine.

Needs a Spoon or Crozier Slab instead of the single fin though.
Is the sidestep a VW item? Where do you get 'em?

hi mitchel up untill last weekend i was driving a 72 beetle pearl white with metalics but i sold it to buy a splitty unfortunately the splitty sale fell through so untill i find a splitty i am looking at an empty car space
murray
You guys (waltermitty & 71EJVan) kneelos?
That looks pretty darn nice👍
Michell. I went down the same track with my rack. Silver paint though. I will have to load up me golf clubs and see if they fit.
Kombi yes we are, although I think Mitchel has a few more years practise than I have judging by some of the pictures that he has previously posted. I think Mitchel and Lowrider(from QLD) have a competition as to who can collect the most kneeboards.
Just got the approval for another Friar Tuck before Winter, Woohoo!

Mitch.. I never knew there was such a knee board movement!.. I checked that site out and I'm totally amazed.. Was down at Bondi today with my youngest for a quick surf... He rides a board and I tool around on a boogie board.. How tricky are the knee boards.. I want one,..
Mate get one even better I have one for you . Kneeling is cool as you are closer to the wave which gives a great sensation of speed. and you can take off on steeper faces than standups so can hang further inside. also The surf only needs to be 3 foot to get tubed! Im away for about two weeks now skiing in Japan (yeehah) when I get back Ill be after that rear seat. You can borrow or trade for a board I have heaps. Mitchell

My 12yo son rides a kneeboard also. Boxing day it was very clean 2 ft and offshore up past the Entrance. Jake and I had 2.5 hours of getting shacked off our heads. It was small but heaps of fun. Standups were green with envy.
Mitchel, I've been a member of Ksusa since 2003. Great site. Go into surf art and you can see my son with the parkes I painted up for him. Also his scar of his fin chop from last May.
Just got Sparrow's North Shore Gathering DVD for chrissy. Great kneeboarding video.
StenGuns, after you try kneeboarding the first thing you'll ask is "how long has this been going on?!!"
A mate re-introduced me to Kneeboarding 4 years ago after a 18 year break from surfing and waterskiing. I haven't stopped since.
Regards
Brendan
