I think I broke a couple of these when I was younger. It seems to have two sets of hand grips. Interesting length.
Dead ebay link removed here. |

I gotta say, Poobah, until I started seeing some photos from England and Oz and the League of Lamaroos formed I'd never seen anything like those ironing board shapes. I'm sure the styrofoam boards we used up this way in the 60's were much more squatty rectangular. Anybody ridden one in modern times? |

Ya, the ones I had as a kid must have been shorter, and more of a bullet nose. I even had a large styro bowl...a half sphere. Out of control fun. |

Well, ahem...yes...out of control fun. These days there is some sort of conspiricy breaking apart those two elements. You can be "out of control" and get handsomely rewarded, or killed...society doesn't seem to differentiate or care. Or you can have "fun", which is regulated up the wazoo and rewarded with disdain and poverty. But really, they have our best interests are heart, I'm sure, and if not remember
standing targets are easiest to hit! |
