Check out this video from 1994 featuring Jonathan McDonald, one of the best kneeboarders ever. <BR> <BR><a href="http://www.sportnet-uk.com/modules/gallery/Albums/album06/sundrop_promo.wmv" target="_blank">http://www.sportnet-uk.com/modules/gallery/Albums/album06/sundrop_promo.wmv</a>

That is ridiculous! Wow! <BR>Those flips were sick! <BR>I cant believe I'm going to say this, but when I grow up I want to kneeboard like J McD!! <BR> <BR>I still own that spoon shaped obrien board and dig it out once a year or so. It flips like mad! <BR>My dad took all my old skiing/kneeboarding/skurfing/barefooting video footage from vhs and burnt it to dvd for me for christmas! It was a great to go through all that old footage and see what we used to do on that old equipment. I found some videos of me trying toeside frontrolls on my hyperlite (the original orange and purple one from around '90ish) behind an outboard with no tower/pole/ballast! What a great christmas present.

OK, was it just me or did anyone else feel like they were watching the unseen Vanilla Ice video from the water? <BR> <BR>In all seriousness, that was some pretty sick kneeboarding, the quint-flip?? Are you kidding me?? My favorite was the blonde in that retna piercing pink PFD.

That made my day. <BR> <BR>Some of you younger guys can't appreciate that video, but before wakeboarding some of us older riders used to break it down on the kneeboard. <BR> <BR>Did you hear McDonald after he won that tournament..."...If I fall I'm gonna give a handshake to my competitor, but if I win I'm gonna talk some junk..." ha ha

That video is sick. Ha, ha. Gave me a good laugh for sure. Just wait till people watch our videos in a few years and laugh at us. Those guys have skills though.

I wonder if he has a gun rack on his kneeboard..

whats up with all that beer spilling out of the cooler? <BR> <BR>i have to be honest though, i know some kneeboarders who go huge. how their backs take the punishment i don't know. also i have seen this one guy nicknamed 'speed chicken' go absolutely enormous on a kneeboard during a wakeboarding exhibition event at a collegiate 3 event tournament back in '97 or so.
