Dual cab
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.

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

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!

Hey 71 my Henry slab is on the way also got mt energy thruster back, It was the first comercially sold thruster kneeboard and has a very similar plan
shape to todays boards.You can read aboutthe board in this article /interview of mark ashby Im the mitchell mentioned
http://home.iprimus.com.au/sydneykneeboarders/ddframeset.htm
Gee I want a spoon though. At least my new Drift is ready and it has a george greenough mezersmit logo as a tribute. I will get it next week.
Hey Lobus cant you fit the clubs in the back? If you bring em to sydney Ill take you for a game. Mitchell

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
