This club was the foundation of getting kneeboarders in WA to meet and become a strong voice in WASRA (West Australian Surfriders Association) during the 70's and 80's.
It was the pinacle of Kneeboarding in WA
I believe Blair and a few others formed the club but would love to hear from others how it came about and who the initiators were involved.
My first contact was when they were having a comp at The Spot in about 1977. Paul Raper was a stand out at that comp on his greenish coloured fish tail. It was the first time I had ever seen anyone make a wave right across the reef to the sand pit.
Enjoy!
