Picked this little sucker up about 2 years ago at a garage sale. 5'10" x 23 x 3 six channel twin fin knee board. $20! It was shaped by Springer in Torquay god knows when . Spent $8 on spray paint and gave it the Point Concept spray (My favorite hull maker from Santa Barbera California). Wanted to test out the size before I commited to a Mini Simmons and try out a bit of Greenough style action. Surfed it in Phillip Island shorebreak and over at Flynns during the summer. Good Fun. Offloaded it for about $40 recently to a new enthusiast. Cheap way of experimenting and keeping things fresh.
