You putting your arse on a land board these days?

stevep - 12-2-2008 at 09:45 AM

well yeah gonna give it a try do you know where to get a grab handle

Steve, I'm impressed. We both know those handles aren't for carrying the board to the beach. I guess you're about my age, so maybe I'm not too old to strap onto one of those things? Well Tridude makes it look easy too. No more excuses I guess. Angus I know you are as nervous about the boards as I am. Maybe with the pads on and the right wind, it won't be too bad to give it a try.

I'd probably start At Lowes' with door handles or a Leather tool bag or tool box handle. Or if you can get some tubular webbing and put a piece of foam in it to give it shape, then fold over the ends and bolt them down.
I'm still afraid of those things...

I believe MBS sells them on their sites. Might want to try mtbz.com too.

lots of things work for board handles. Any kiteboarding handle should fit your board. I saw a 'climbing hold' on a board for a handle.

I like soft board handles, the metal one's can hurt if you grab them wrong.
