Kneeboard Design
- Thread starter GWS
- Start date
If that doesn't pan out, get a hold of Dave Parkes at Friar Tuck or maybe Neil Luke on Philip Island. They may be able to set you up. They're cripple legends down there and great shapers that span the eras that includes the board in your picture.
SFKneelo who posts here randomly and Don Harris (RIP) are/were OB chargers. Like most good beach breaks, OB will attract the odd halfman looking to get their's.
Resurfacing this...new kneelo came with a 8" 4A but it felt kinda boggy - not a great fin imho, haven't really enjoyed a 4A in any of my boards, but a good starter template to feel out a board.
Any single fin recs for a 5'6" kneelo? Flex fin? It's a boat - 5'6 and 22.75 wide. I have a set of Hanalei quads im gonna try in it as well!
In Santa Cruz at the moment for vacay but will mostly be using it at Ocean Beach

Drop a line to Robin Mair of Hanalei Fins. He will dial it all in for you. Such a wealth of knowledge in surfboards, fins, dynamics, and kneeboards too.
I use a whip fin in my 5'6 slab. I started with a 9 inch liddle flex and then an 8 Greenough like yours - the whip fin is sooooo much better than the other two.

Inspired by a 1979 Chris Brock / Greenough's kneeboard design, this template is the ultimate kneeboard fin. Designed for load and release during turns, with a "slight shot" feel to it. Specifications: System: Box Fin Construction: Solid Fibreglass (E-Glass) Flex: High Height: 8.5" / Base...

The 4A felt so slow tbh - I think some type of flex is the way to go
That said...are you in the market for a used once 4A?
I sent him a message - didn't realize they made singles too
I have a quad set from them that's mental
