Kneeboard Surfing USA Community Forum

NOW we've got some good shapers out here in the ether.
The question is,is it possible to build a decent two part board?
I believe there's at least one two part longboard on the market that works .Although I've heard it has tendency to come apart.
Oviously a two part will have it's problems,especially if it connects on center,just where our knees,which creates a lot of pressure.
6' board in half means it's baggage,and you're allowed two bags.
Maybe a board used for small waves,on a quckie trip where the fare is great but the board charge is killer.Pipe dream????????

Hart....bud...?Anyone?

..

Not interested in a hundred reasons ....shouldn't.Only interested in the ingenuity of can it be done.

No cigar,next

cheers

We've done quite a few over the years.

Unintentionally though.

The price you pay for rushing the mean ones.

....OK..I asked for it...where's this going?.....NEXT?

Pope has been making those things for what, almost forty years, and they still haven't got it down.
I would be very leary dropping in and planting my knees right at the weakest spot on the board. And you know the day you break it is gonna be a day you really don't want to be sidelined.
Not saying it can't be done. A six footer would probably hold up better than those nine footers they make. Maybe double tubes? Or spares of the parts that are prone to breakage.

Almost 1500$ for a Longboard.

Tsk-tsk...Scolded .Have known about the pope trisect since when.Ideas are the seeds of invention,No?And if so, then perhaps a seed planted,in the right mind, will find a method,using the bounty of modern technology to solve the problem.
The same thing was said of wood veneer boards.No one could figure it out,Until gary young decided to take it to task.Told it was a waste of good money.Check out his website[gary young surfboards]
And the whole thing started right here in this little town.

cheers


Bet GG could it.......

"bet gg could do it"......maybe so but does he care??? ...i dont believe hes ever been into financial gain...from what i know he was born with blue blood...does anyone know if he ever got into production of anything...i know his boat desigh is still sold to this day but does he get paid for it..does he care????

3 parts would be better,

that way the crease is a way from your knees

but would have the flexability of a two week dead dog

and probably ride like one

last time I rode a dead dog was ... let's see, in the summer of 78, it was a border colley if I remember, a yellow and tan one, with big floppy ears and a sort of half moustache where the Mongolid vet had squeezed too hard with the forceps (he had to use barbecue tongs because they were the only sterile intruments lying around the junk yard we used to call 'home') during the ceasarian.

We were so poor we had to pay him (the vet - his name was Harry Turdwood) in small packets of dust that we scooped off the ground and put in the second hand Coles supermarket plastic bags that we'd caught the winter before blowing in the desert wind, trying to make their way across the desolate Cooper's Plains, where they'd been heading for a lifetime of carefree plastic bagginess on some distant sunlit mediteranean beach....

In fact, we were so poor it never ocured to any of us to cut our kneeboards in half and sell the resulting foam dust to the rich old witch who lived across the road and used to give us a facial rash from her whiskers when she hugged us to see if we had put any flesh on our thin skeletal hides...


2 part boards?

Good idea for apartment dwellers

skansand='' dont believe he's ever been into financial gain'' ..... this has nothing to do with financial gain,or production..Phew!!!,inovation,got it. orange co, figures......republican?fox news?

Zorro has the idea more better.

Hey K
Forget the two part and get a surfmat. The trick is to blow it up with an air pump. Get it real hard and ride it on your knees. Or Not!

zorro ,,verry entertaining..

jon....can it be done?

k-man.....republican?fox news?,,,me???...what?...i dont watch tennis..
