WAVEJET

Meet the new motor powered surfboard, only 13 pounds heavier than a traditional surfboard.
Surfers can easily opt for turning the motor on or off by using a remote strapped to their arm in a wristwatch-like device. Wavejet can be recharged through a standard wall socket. There's no gasoline or diesel involved. Technology has been changing surfing and this Personal Water Propulsion (PWP) engine was designed for use in a wide range of personal watercraft, from SUP to surfboards. Wavejet can be up in a continuous run-time of over 30 minutes.

Lancelin Trip May 2011

click on the link to see some of the action from May 2011 club meet at Lancelin
where for the first time in a long time the club got together and had a free surf....
in lumpy bumpy waves (good waves for a comp) at backbeach.
a big thanks to Al Peardon for sitting on a sand dune and taking the footage
(couldnt get the 2nd CD working Al so not sure what we have missed)
hopefully we will get some more footage in the future in better waves and
throw it on youtube under "Indiana Kneeriders" with the date, then we will have
a bit of a record of the club....(note no record of the last kneelo club in WA
that i know of...if you have any pics get them to me)

Sunday at Lancelin Back Beach

Lancelin back beach 7.30am -  the surf wasnt looking very good although there was a good swell running and a light easterly wind was blowing....everyone was tempted to go elsewhere even though we had committed to staying in the one spot this time....(may not happen again), Al got the video camera out so we will see a bit of footage in the next few weeks.  everyone gave the thumbs up to the bakery / cafe opposite the caravan park near Eddie's and this may become the new meeting spot next time round before finding some better waves  (note no access now to bombing range from wedge township...tracks closed and
beach gone, meant to be some banks north of wedge.....dont know about beach access from lano side
but would expect it to be getting dodgey after seeing today's tide
a couple of guys asked about how to create a post....basically just sign in and click on DESIGN then look for NEW POST
