WOW! What a project what an idea, what a history full of drama and chaos.
Great to see this thing get up again and full Kudos to make it from dream to reality and everyone who got on board ( pardon the pun )
inspirational stuff and well worth video epic.
May the life of a thousand oceans breathe back into the beer garden boardd project.
Do you have to be a contributor in the making of this board to partake??? Should make it a rule that to surf it there has to be footage,so you can share the stoke of the project,get it happening

Not my call but its not too late to whack in 50 and get on board
Surf 69 you pretty much summed it all up.....I was starting to think the goodness was jinxed at one stage due to ****wit and circumstances.
Now with your good thoughts the journey keeps on going. So if there are not any Sydney peeps who want to throw in a fiddy for the disabled surfers and get the board for a bit,I will arrange to get it sent back up here and get Mr clearwater to take it back to wa to jb,and he can then do what he was saying......then the Victorian boys can get it.
On the video footage....Sadly it is a pain in the arse,and I'm not going to saying anything on a forum. But get some pics of the board at your local beach and however you want to take them and post them up. Don't delete them when you post them.
So Sydney peeps if ya want the board throw in some coin and it's yours otherwise the journey will continue.
Thanks again so much to the good folk who keep.smiling![]()

Gday boys,Im keen to jump on it and Ill gladly chuck 50 to the disabled surfer association as Im a member anyway and volunteer on their days on the Central Coast,I can also bring the board up the coast to Coffs area in mid October if theres no one else getting on board down here.Let me know how to get in touch with whoever has it now and its journey can continue.I reckon its such a great idea for a good cause and well done for seeing it through

sweet i will get onto mr ir about hooking up with you...or he will read this post and you two can arrange it. you might have it longer than mid october i will say...just from experience......maybe someone like obct or ted or someone might head near the goldy.....or a camping trip might even be a better idea....then to jb
get some pics of it at your local obct and michael please
All good crispy I've pm/d him and can pick it up this weekend I might even dash up for a relo visit to Suffolk park as well so we can work out a pass it on point.thanks for opening it up for unknowns- I'll get some pics no probs cheers
We'll try again to get some pics this weekend, and have another crack at the video. Shouldn't be too hard, should it?
Ricardo, I'll be surfing Longy or Collaroy from 9 until Midday Sat. Might also be around Friday arvo. Perhaps you can join us for a splash. Will send you a text with my details shortly.
Good to see the BGB get fired up again.
yep good to see the boys frothing
Righto you blokes, the video is currently uploading to youtube. We had a couple of hours at a very average Collaroy and I've edited it down to about 8 minutes of not so fancy footwork and a few kooky moves.
I then met up with Ricardo and handed over the board, the video and a fresh copy of instructions on how to use the Contour Camera. As it turns out, it's not that hard. He said he was going to take it out tomorrow and get some more footage.
Chrispy, I've kept a copy of all the footage for later inclusion (or not) in any other larger scale video you might want to put together.
So there you go, it's taken a bit of time, but at least we've got some more movement happening.
Surfed the beer garden over the weekend in 2-3ft waves and again on Monday in clean early morning glass only around 2ft but great board really impressed with how it went sussed out contour thanks to Micheal and got a bit of footage but will wait for some bigger swell to post footage sweet ride![]()
Gday Viewers,quick flick of the Beer Garden Board continuing on its journey,Im an amateur when it comes to computers and video so I might just post quick flicks like this so it doesn't send you all crazy with dodgy camera work etc,Board goes really good Thanks again for allowing me into its trip around Oz
Not sure if it's just me, it's asked me to sign in to view the video?
Good to see the project kicked off again, who's next?
Same here.
Come on Ricardo get your sh1t together. ![]()
We're all looking forward to seeing the footage.
It's only taken 3 years for somebody to post some footage so we can wait a bit longer. ![]()
