B.P.R 2,798 Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 Car bonnet is the quickest by far but feck me if it goes wrong its taking yer arm with it! Seen the lads yesterday with rubber rings, body boards and some posh cnut skiing One lad had a scooter with the wheels and front forks took off and screwed onto a skateboard less the wheels and axles. Very ingenuitive if you ask me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NEWKID 29,095 Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 A mates dad worked for tremletts ( they're boat builders) when we were kids, he made a fibre glass sledge that looked a bit like a bob sleigh, that thing was unreal, we'd get 3 of us on if and if flew.. Took it up the pitch and putt, golf course, one year, taking air off of the bunkers, went home black and blue... But back the next day for more lol The normal nicked for sale sign was the norm before that beast though lol.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
