    sand toboggans

    Anyone know where you can get them from. Though it might be cool to have one so if we go to any beaches in the hols marcos and i could hoon down the dunes on one. I did a google search but couldnt find much, do any shops around stockton sell them? If they do how much are they? matt

    sand toboggans

    Body / boogie boards work a treat. The sand is rough on them but you can pick them up for less than $20.00 if you shop around. A nice long piece of cardboard works well also, just make sure you curl up the front edge. The waxed cardboard used for signs works well also, Just after an election is the best time to find it.

    The "For Sale" sign that was out the front of my house would make a good slider. It seems to be a plastic version of cardboard. Flat on each side with a corrugated internal section for strength.

    I'm not sure about toboggans - but have seen a sand board.

    A few years ago my brother bought himself a sand board to use on the Dunes at Cronulla/Kurnell- its thicker slightly than a skateboard (i think), about half as long again and has curved ends and 2 stirrup-things to hold your feet in place. Just needs to be waxed before use.

    Fancy and expensive -I think it was around the $200 mark from Sydney Board Centre (no longer there) - so yeah, that For Sale sign would be a cheaper option....

    So I suppose a length of bullnose galv is out of the question? Grew up in the Adelaide hills, on the Great Grand-parents farm, that's what we used on the hill-sides back then.

    Come to think back on it, no wonder mother used to freak.
